Critic Reviews
-
Reece Pendleton, Chicago Reader
if you can get past the cutesy mugging and preening onstage, you may find the true creative talent refreshing.
-
Tom Long, Detroit News
American Harmony is a successful greatest hits compilation of top-level performances of recent years; but that makes you want it to be so much more.

Sarah Boslaugh, Playback:stl
American Harmony is the Pumping Iron of barbershop quartet singing.
-
Sarah Bryan Miller, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
The documentary gives too brief an introduction to the basics of barbershop and doesn't tell us how most of the singers got hooked. It does capture the intensity and the personalities of the competition -- and it makes us care who wins.
