Thirteen years ago, in the fall of 1997, a few hand-picked Clemson men began a part of Clemson University history known as TIGEROAR.
Sporting orange blazers, and the famous "Tiger Rag" fight song, they were a hit from the start.
From its humble beginnings of pumping up the local Clemson crowds with the Clemson fight song,
to being hailed as the best live a cappella show of its kind,
TIGEROAR has grown into an instuition at Clemson University and on the a cappella scene.
TIGEROAR performs a variety of musical genres around not only Clemson, but also has entertained audiences all the way from San Francisco, to New York, to Boston, Chicago, and most recently at the University of Michigan. In 13 years, TIGEROAR has produced 7 albums, twice appeared on the Best Of College A Cappella compilation CDs, received a few CARA nominations, placed first in the 2004 SoJam competition, and placed second in the South in the 2004 ICCA competition! The group also puts on two big concerts in Clemson every year, and their spring show, TIGEROAR Live, is a perennial sell-out at Clemson's 1,000-seat Brooks Center.
Even with all the success the group has achieved, the group still relies heavily on the path of tradition paved by its' alumni, and thankfully people still can't get enough of 14 Clemson boys singing songs that shake the southland!
And hey, while you're here, SIGN OUR GUESTBOOK!
