Choir Profile
A mixed-voice contemporary, a cappella choir, they are made up of musicians and actors from the University of St Andrews. They study a wide range of different subjects from History to Arabic to International Relations. They are very well known around St. Andrews and are very popular amongst students. The Alleycats were set up by a group of friends 6 years ago, who had the bright idea whilst sat in the pub that they could create a group to sing at parties.

Nicely done. Singing in tune without accompaniment from musical instruments is quite difficult. This is what a cappella should be.
Hey Alleycats!!! Hope you are all doing great!! I see you're performing in the Fringe! I miss your singing guys! Hope we can get to see you one more time. DON'T BREAK UP!!!
Watched the show, watch the video taken on the train, many times over...what a pity you were in your final year when this happened for you! so very very good...and as a Scot, love the men in the kilt...wonderful stuff.
absolutely HALLELUJAH!!!! It was mind blowing harmony! Brilliant singing!
Really enjoyed the Alleycats performance of Hallelujah and am inspired by the young talent that the group contains. Didn't spot the girl who fronted the group on the TV perfomance of Valerie and Faith which was beautifully mixed though.
Ann Bowen - you can!

Or if you are in Edinburgh then keep an eye out for us as we will be busking around the High Street between the 20th-25th!
I thought their audition piece was stunning and although the intricacy of the arrangements sometimes undid them I was very sorry to see them leave as other less exciting but maybe more technically perfect choirs were preferred. I hope they are given the opportunity to put some of their performances on disc before they go their separate ways - I'd love to buy a copy!

the best performance of this whole competition for me was your version of Faith/Valerie. Really thought you should have gone lots further!
