Artist History Formed during a casual dinner at the now-defunct Morry's Deli in Hutch Commons, the Jocko Plampin Maroon Chorale went on (in the next couple hours) to compose and record the definitive -- even if officially unrecognized -- Alma Mater for the University of Chicago. That song, which certainly would have won the University-wide competition to replace the archaic official anthem (if only Hootchiekoo had remembered to submit the tape), continues to guide, inspire, and perplex countless students even today, a decade after its composition.

Group Members Jocko Plampin, Rutha Mast, Bobby Trowbridge, Hootchiekoo Anderson, et al.

Instruments Booming male voices and a Casio keyboard

Location Chicago, IL - USA
