Concert: The Khanverted Album Release Show
Going to an arch sing can be pretty chilly at this time of year, and it usually seems easier to stay inside and watch “Glee.” But for those who’ve missed hearing the dulcet tones of live a cappella groups, Shere Khan will be giving a concert this weekend in the mercifully heated Richardson Auditorium. This concert performance is the group’s first in three years, and they will be singing songs from their recently released sixth studio album, “Khanverted.” Needless to say — because it’s Shere Khan, after all — this show promises to be very hot indeed.
