They’ve become one of the world’s most sophisticated, lasting, and imitated vocal groups around today. You’d be hard-pressed to find a more influential & long-lasting group out there. As one of the progenitors of the astonishing full-band sound of “contemporary” a cappella, Rockapella has shown every audience the raw power of authentic vocal talent and originality. “There’s nothing in the way between us and the audience; it’s very human music,” says Rockapella’s human beatbox Jeff Thacher. No instruments, no tracks, no mirrors…and never lame. Since the early ’90’s when they first achieved national television fame on PBS’s "Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego?", they’ve toured the globe and provided a funky powerful soundtrack to several generations of vocal music fans, while keeping it all fresh. With buckets of catchy original pop songs, and complete contemporary revisions of sparkling pop and soul classics, this group has always been the one to watch. ”Often imitated – never duplicated” applies here. USA Today summed up their lasting appeal: “The best musical instrument of all is the human voice – if you’ve seen Rockapella you know that’s the truth.” The New York Times agrees; they’re “Pure entertainment”!
