Runner Up For Local Singer’s Group On NBC’s ‘The Sing-Off’
December 21, 2010
A local singer’s group finished as the runner-ups on NBC’s national a cappella singing competition series “The Sing-Off” Monday night.
Adam Chance Ray, who performs as Adam Chance, sings bass for the six-member Street Corner Symphony. The group was one of four to make it through the preliminary rounds to appear on Monday night’s live show, but they fell short of America’s internet and telephone voting for a $100,000 prize and a Sony Music recording contract. First place went to the group Committed.
Chance’s friends and family gather at Atmore restaurant to cheer on the Nashville-based Street Corner Symphony, while Chance’s parents Glenn and Kristi Ray were in the live audience to cheer for their son.
Chance (pictured), who was born in the Florida Panhandle, currently resides in Tuscaloosa, but still has numerous relatives in the Atmore and Jay areas.
The members of Street Corner Symphony are from all over the Southeast United States and call Nashville their home base. The group was formed in May of 2010 for the sole purpose of competing in The Sing-Off.

Very talented group of guys… but committed were just on a whole different level from everyone in the competition.
As second runner up more than likely this will go far to make them be recognized
by someone who can further their career and help promote them.
After all I had never heard of them before this competion and probably many of
you were the same. Just imagine how many people will be looking for a CD.
Street Corner Symphony should have won, over the closely talented Committed. But honestly, SCS was the MOST talented of the groups. I’m just hoping that some record execs realize true talent and sign them to a $100,000 contract, as well! You go, guys. Can’t wait for your album.
They were outstanding and very humble. True showmen and will go a long way. They have a lot to be proud of for they represented their fmilies and towns well. Well done guys, well done!
Street Corner Symphony performed outstandingly throughout the competition. The CD of Christmas music is great, especially Auld Lang Syne which SCS sings. I’m sure Adam and the entire group will go far. Can’t wait for them to release a cd of just them!
Enjoyed watching the show. Best of luck to Adam and the entire group they are a very talented group of young men.
