Captain Smartypants was formed in 2000 by Seattle Men's Chorus Assistant Artistic Director Eric Lane Barnes. They have but one goal: to make you laugh while creating exquisite harmony. Captain Smartypants has gained a reputation in Seattle for telling it like it is, telling it like it isn't, and telling it like it probably never will be. Part improv-comedy troupe, part a capella showcase, part vaudeville extravaganza, these boys sing and dance like the illegitimate lovechild of 'N Sync and Monty Python's Flying Circus. This vocal ensemble has shared the stage with such luminaries as Nell Carter, Megan Mullally, Lea Delaria, Rosemary Clooney, Kristin Chenoweth and, of course, Seattle Men's Chorus. Their stylistic range includes swing, doo-wop, pop covers, Motown, technopop, barbershop, and pretty much anything else they can get away with. UnderCover features covers of songs made popular by Elton John, Joni Mitchell, Petula Clark, Rufus Wainwright, Bill Withers, James Taylor, Sonny and Cher and many others. You'll be humming along to such great tunes as Big Yellow Taxi, Killing Me Softly, Fernando, Suddenly Seymour and Xanadu. This CD is sure to become one of your favorites.
