WPTS will host its first annual In-House Showcase in the William Pitt Union on Friday, featuring local groups from of practically any kind imaginable, from a cappella to hardcore.

The Sounds of Pleasure, Pitt’s a cappella group, will demonstrate their unique interpretations of everything from oldies to current pop hits. Who says you need instruments when you’ve got the lovely harmonies of these ladies?

If it’s rock you’re interested in, WPTS is offering you two chances to hear some of the best in town. We’re Wolves and the Montanimals will both be performing their original songs at the event. And for all you hardcore die-hards out there, Anchorage, a band hailing from Greensburg, will be making its Pittsburgh debut Friday night, while Manshaft will explore the emotional depths of noise music and just letting sounds speak for themselves, providing listeners with a charged, chaotic experience.

For hip-hop fans, there is the duo Public Access, made up of J. Pitts (MC) and Nice Record Work (DJ). They will be bringing their underground style to Pitt’s campus at the Showcase. And The Wrestling Team isn’t even musical at all. In fact, it’s a comedy act comprised of Andrew Beckerman and Mark Charles Bisi, Jr., dedicated to the purpose of making you laugh until you pee.

Don’t just sit around your dorm room this Friday night, or do the regular things like spending absurd amounts of money at the movies on tickets and popcorn. Instead, head to the Union to hear what the Pittsburgh music scene is all about.

The 1st Annual In-House Showcase is Friday, Feb. 27 at 8:30 p.m. in 411 WPU. Tickets are $2. And just in case you needed any more encouragement, Pulp Magazine and BMW will bring a MINI Cooper to the front of the Union for ticket giveaways and photo ops.
