(NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ) -- State Theatre New Jersey presents Straight No Chaser – SUMMER: The 90's Part 2 on Wednesday, July 16, 2025 at 7:30pm. Featuring their twist on 90s classics like Lisa Loeb's "Stay (I Missed You)," "Everybody" by Backstreet Boys, "Linger" from The Cranberries, and Santana's "Maria Maria," Straight No Chaser brings audiences of all ages back to a simpler time, one unafraid of bright neons, loud prints, and cool boy bands.
“The '90s were a time when music impacted people in a way that only nostalgia can recreate,” said Straight No Chaser member Seggie Isho. “We felt that connection with audiences last summer. Our fans are ready for more of that throwback magic, and we’re ready to bring it! It’s not just about the songs, though; it's about reliving the energy, the vibe, and those unforgettable moments. Plus, we’ve got new 90s-inspired fits, new music, and even more hair gel (for some of us). Get ready to party!”
Initially formed at Indiana University, a cappella group Straight No Chaser emerged at the forefront of the modern-day a cappella movement and has since sold more than three million albums worldwide, garnered over a billion streams on Pandora alone, and sold more than 1.5 million concert tickets worldwide. In the fall of 2022, the group performed in more than 60 cities across the U.S. with multiple sold-out shows, including their 26th consecutive sell-out in Indianapolis.

Treasures of New Jersey: State Theatre New Jersey can be streamed online.
