• Years Active: 1989 - 1996

• Fun Facts:

  • In 1991, The Big Apple Circus commissioned Rave Revue to record Coney Island Baby for use as the introduction song to their production of "Greetings From Coney Island", their year-long theme for 1991.

  • When Habitat for Humanity decided they wanted a theme song for their organization, two local (Poughkeepsie area) composers created "The Song of the Hammer". Rave Revue recorded the official version, and it's still played at HFH events today.

  • Rave Revue's image, derived from a pencil sketch, has been used extensively in BHS literature and advertising. It still adorns the cover of the Barbershop Arranging Manual.

  • Rave Revue absolutely LOVED doing chapter shows.
