The Springstreeters are an all-male [[a cappella]] group founded in 1980. They look good, sound great, and go on tours and road trips all over the East Coast (with occasional excursions to archipelagos in the Central Pacific). Auditions are held during the first week or two of classes.

The '''SeniorsSpringstreeters'''(est. 1980), also known as the '''Streeters''', are an all-male and non-binary [[a cappella]] group, hailing from Williamstown, Massachusetts, the epicenter of the world. Taking regular tours and road trips all over the East Coast (with occasional excursions to archipelagos in the Central Pacific), the group is always eager to share their music.
Tim Lengel==History==Long ago in the humble Purple Valley, Baritonethere was a shy but sincere man called Eph. And a lovable Eph he was. With a big top hat, shining brass balls, and an itch to make the world a better place. So he started a school called Williams, where many boys, and eventually girls and others, could frolic in the fields of lollipops and read books and coordinate massive financial mergers. It was a lovely time for everyone. Oh the taps always flowed and the football team always won, but there was something missing.
Evan Maltby“Ah, Bass” said one lad with flaming red hair, “it be music we be lackin’!” Malcolm was his name, and he could read those mysterious black dots and lines that decode the enigma of sound. He gathered about him his most trusted pals, chums, and ne’er-do-wells. They practiced and hummed in their sleep for months. The “doos” and “bahs” bounced around in their skulls for what seemed an eternity. Finally, with their voices honed to perfection, and great trepidation in their hearts, they gathered together in the auditorium to entertain. What they lacked in tonality they compensated for in joviality! The people laughed and cried and gushed in their seats and gave thunderous applause at the end, which they wished would never come. And it was good, baby. Malcom’s merry band, having taken the name “The Springstreeters” from the largest – and indeed the only – street in town, soon ventured forth out of the protected Purple Valley. They won the hearts of all of New England, and of several southern sororities as well.
Tommy NelsonThey graduated, Tenor IIof course, those first brave few. But they inspired quite a following, and took many more into their ranks. From year to year the music is handed down to another exuberant youth who can read it, and the legend continues. The Streeters go forth, always to sing, stumble about, and find open arms and warm beds wherever they end up, always with the sacred chant of “Jell-O” to spur them to action, and always with their Greavis (sic) beverage at the ready. Onward, O Streeters! And let none wear frock nor frown whilst we draw breath!

==Trivia==Check out our homepage for more information: https://www.thespringstreeters.com/ * The Springstreeters also served as the inspiration for the name of the former Williams College streaking team, the [[Springstreakers]], and the Waterstreeters, another a former all-male a capella cappella group.* The Springstreeters are sometimes known as the Spring Street Singers, stemming from a mishap by Ben Zobian '27 in the program notes to ''Peter and the Starcatcher'', a [[Cap and Bells]] production.
