==History==
Founded in 1992, The Bear Necessities were an outgrowth of The High Jinks, another all-male singing group at Brown. In the early 1990s, The High Jinks dissolved and former members came together as The Bear Necessities (The High Jinks were revived in 2009).〔Mitchell, Martha. "Musical Clubs." Encyclopedia Brunoniana. Web. 5 Dec. 2011. .〕〔Chazen, Colin. "High Jinks, Old and New, Back on Campus." Brown Daily Herald(RI ) 6 Feb. 2009. Web. 5 Dec. 2011. .〕 Some of the final members of The High Jinks, after moving to New York City after graduation, went on to begin Rockapella, a nationally-known a cappella band.〔Borden, Timothy.
