PS22 Chorus

The D Man had a great choir director in high school. When Mr. Keck wanted to cut loose, he rocked out with some American folk songs. But this sensitive pony-tailed guy? He leads his chorus through endearing renditions of Journey, Survivor, and Coldplay.

PS22 Chorus is a fifth-grade choir from Public School 22 in Staten Island, New York. The diverse group of kids has received more than 14 million YouTube hits and been featured with artists such as Tori Amos, Stevie Nicks, and Common. Recently, they were featured on three songs from Passion Pit's fantastic debut album, Manners, including the infectious sing-a-long from "Little Secrets." Check out the chorus doing "Lisztomania" from Phoenix. Thanks to G-Reese via B-Reese for the heads up.
