Design and Hosting Clients: Bill Hare Productions Bill Hare, the legendary album producer, is located in the Silicon Valley, California, and established Bill Hare Productions in 1984, specializing in Contemporary Professional and Collegiate A Cappella. "After Mike became my client with the Buffalo Chips, we of course had more occasion to talk and the subject of Acappella Hosting came up. Having been with my current host (Earthlink) for 11 years, I was a little reluctant to rock the boat - I mean, it's a big company with real hold music as I wait for real tech support in India, so I wasn't sure what this college kid could offer. I was worried about downtime, what would happen to all of my redirect addresses for family and friends, and all these other things I had set up at Earthlink over the years that might get lost in the transfer. Mike explained that he'd get everything transferred and working before we switched over, so there would be zero downtime. He did a lot of manual inputting and other customer service sort of things a big company would never do for one of its customers to make sure every file and redirect was accounted for before we switched over. I'm a big believer that going above and beyond for your clients is just as important as your product, and have found Mike to be of a like mind in that respect. 2 weeks ago, dyz.com moved over to Acappella Hosting and I couldn't be happier - I have WAAAAAY more space/transfer, much more functionality and flexibility on his system (with Earthlink, I couldn't even assign individual username/passwords for our FTP transfers), and in addition to all of this, it's $10 a month cheaper than what I've been paying these last 11 years! And the transfer was painless. What's not to like about that?? :-)" -B Liquid5th Productions Liquid 5th Productions is a music production company specializing in contemporary a cappella. Founded in February 2005 by Mark Hines, Nick Lyons and Carl Taylor, and drawing on a combined total of nearly 75 years of vocal music experience, Liquid 5th is proud to be the first true team in a cappella production! We bring together expertise in all aspects of A Cappella Production, as well as Music Education, Electrical Engineering, Retail sales, and an MBA - an invaluable collection of skills and talents. "I second everything Bill just said. Liquid 5th is in the process of moving our entire online existence to A Cappella Hosting. Not only is Mike handling the transfers and such - he's even handling the transfers for our clients that have opted to go with someone other than A Cappella Hosting. You read that correctly - Mike is assisting people that are taking their business somewhere other than him. I've been a firm believer that a web presence is crucial in a cappella, regardless of what role you play in the industry (i.e. producer, collegiate group, professional group, etc.), and Mike is bar none the most knowledgeable, resourceful, and downright nice individual any of us could turn to for assistance on this front. Wow - little bit of karma... Thanks for opening the door on that one Bill :-)" -Mark Hines
Total Vocal The number-one a cappella arranging, production, directing and teaching company.
"I just took the plunge - for TotalVocal, the House Jacks, Vybration and Contemporary A Cappella Publishing. The rates are amazingly low, and Mike's been great. I don't have to lift a finger. He's even going to do my laundry." -Deke The House Jacks The House Jacks of San Francisco are the original rock band without instruments. Using nothing more than their five voices (and mouths), they deliver everything from blistering funk to screaming rock to heart-melting ballads for their ever-growing legions of fans.
