Sing Out For Shelter 2021

Virtual Concert

“Helplessness Blues” 

Doox of Yale

Over the past 65 years, “Da Doox” have grown from a young quartet into a rowdy and incredibly close family of more than 400 singers. In the process, we’ve become one of the most respected singing groups in the country. We tour internationally, record albums regularly, and charm presidents and preschoolers alike. Doox of Yale, known at the time as “The Duke’s Men of Yale,” was named one of the nation’s top 5 male a cappella groups by the Contemporary A Cappella Society of America. The group has also placed in the top 4 at the International Competition of Collegiate A Cappella (ICCA) after winning the national round. In keeping with our goals to create music that reflects our community, we now invite all singers, regardless of sex or gender identity, to join us in the years ahead. In 2018, we changed our name to reflect this: Doox of Yale.

    Wow. I’ve been listening to, and performing, a cappella for forty years, but this song blew me away. Beautifully sung, lovely arrangement, and incredibly moving song itself. I’m so impressed, Doox; keep it up. Sherry Agar Y’82 (New Blue, Whim)

    Like several other Doox songs (What A Good Boy, comes to mind), this one surpasses the (Fleet Foxes) original, with a combination of extremely talented arranging from Truett, and the spirit and talent of the group. I’m proud to have been a member back long before such greatness was the group’s hallmark!
