Juniors

Christopher Stjernholm: As a sophomore, Christopher is in his first year of the Idiosingcrasies and has thoroughly enjoyed the year thus far. When he is not using his amazing talent to woo girls (his voice probably woos some boys too), he can be found watching or playing sports, taking a quick nap which often turns into a 3 hour nap, hanging with his friends, or playing video games. The best thing about Christopher is his modesty, he is so modest that he never says how truly amazing he is and that he often wonders why people don't bow down before him and kiss his feet.

Nate Pearson: Nate is a sophomore at the University of Denver majoring in Accounting. After singing in bands and vocal groups in his home state of New York, Nate moved to Denver to attend University. Upon joining the Idiosingcrasies Nate understood for the first time what it meant to be a man, and has been singing from his balls ever since.

Paul Lannon: Paul first graced the Idiosingcrasies with his presence in the Fall of 2007. He sings tenor, bass, and beat boxes (he's kind of a big deal). He enjoys such activities as arson, snowboarding (while half-mast), loopholes, breaking awkward silences, causing awkward silences, signing autographs, and occasionally...singing.

His singing background is extensive but he looks forward to learning more about music theory and composition in the next three years with the group. Aside from A Capella he is very involved on campus in a wide array of extracurricular activities such as Greek life, DU Club Water Polo and various small student organizations.

Eleanor Hooper: I am a second year student at DU. I am originally from Portland Oregon. I decided to come to school in Colorado for the Rocky Mountains, my grandparents live a few miles away from campus, and I have spent every summer in CO at Cheley Colorado Camps since before I can remember. I joined this lovely group of singers predominantly because I needed to do this for myself. I love to sing. Maintaining a balance between work and play in my busy schedule continues to be challenge for me, so becoming a part of this group gives me the perfect "harmony," if you will! Idios make a safe place to play, and work to see the results of beautiful music!

Galen Jacobs: Galen is a sophomore at DU studying voice performance, and is so incredibly excited to join the idios. He is a Colorado native, and is looking forward to his first experience in an a cappella group. He loves to sing (especially in the shower), and can't wait for the idios to perform some real songs, aka Billy Joel and Elton John songs. He is incredibly talented and for that reason, he is one of the idios musical directors for the year. He also has great style and can often be seen around campus wearing really adorable sweaters.

Kirby Page-Schmit: Kirbs is a freshman vocal music major from Denver. He brings the thug life to the Idios. He kind of weirds everyone out sometimes with his extensive knowledge of lyrics and random comments, but the Idios just love him even more for it. Fortunately for him, nobody can stay mad at Kirby for long...all he has to do is sing, and everything is forgiven. His voice has been known to summon women and men, straight or gay, from all corners of the globe. A Swedish lady showed up to rehearsal last week asking for him to serenade her. He's a big deal, but thank goodness he's got the Idios to keep him under control. They're one of the greatest things that's ever happened to him, and he loves it with every part of his big heart.

Freshman

Senhica Klee: I am freshman vocal major at DU and I am from Gilbert, Arizona. Being the youngest person in the idiosingcrasies (and the only one with brown skin), I have been opened up to many new ways to express myself musically. Singing is one of my greatest passions and being in this talented group allows me to show people what I can do best.
