Overboard

@overboardvocals

Overboard is a Boston-based contemporary male a cappella group whose repertoire spans a variety of genres. In addition to street performing throughout New England and donating their services to a variety of non-profit organizations, the group has been featured entertainment for American Idol’s annual summer camp and on the CBS Early Show’s A Cappella Quest. Their two most recent albums, Tidings and Help!, have earned the group multiple CARA nominations as well as recognition in and out of the a cappela community.

 

 

Musae

On the surface, Musae is a six-piece vocal band based out of Atlanta, GA. But dig a little deeper and you’ll find that Musae is a recent answer to a long-standing question: Why aren’t there more professional female a cappella groups?

Musae aims to not only uplift and enthrall but also inspire and empower audiences both new to and familiar with their a cappella vocal style of performance. Each “muse” brings a notably different background and approach to music-making, resulting in a delightfully textured and diverse product, sometimes augmented by pedals and effects but never wavering from the human voice as the root of all sound. United by a passion and propensity for music, these muses plan to tear down archetypes regarding female a cappella and breathe new life into the professional scene in the United States and abroad.
