Straight No Chaser Serves You A ‘New Old Fashioned’

Coming up much sooner than the album release and tour is Straight No Chaser’s role in an annual tradition in the group’s home state of Indiana. On May 24 the boys will appear during the Indianapolis 500 pre-race activities to perform “(Back Home Again In) Indiana,” a number that’s all the more fitting when you consider that Straight No Chaser began its life in 1996 at Indiana University Bloomington.  The Indianapolis 500 Pre-Race Show will air live at 12 noon EDT May 24 on ABC.
