THE BEAUTY OF HUMAN VOICE
Hippest a cappella group swinging by Singapore
- Singapore, 25th Sep, 2006
Rockapella, regarded as the biggest name in contemporary a cappella, is coming to Singapore for the very first time on 15th November. Their ingenious vocal talent creates flawless harmonies with spirited funk energy. USA TODAY simply puts it, some say the best musical instrument of all is the human voice.“ if you've seen Rockapella you know that's the truth.
Formed in the States in the mid-eighties, the most visible practitioners of new doo-wop vocals is best-known for its contributions to the award-winning Public Broadcasting Station show."Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?". Riding on the buzz was an appearance in HBO's hit family series "Happily Ever After: Fairy Tales for Every Child" alongside with Hollywood celebrities Whoopi Goldberg and Denzel Washington. The success the group gained in television and radio led to the completion of six revolutionary albums for North America and ten for Japan.
The quintet, which consists of Scott Leonard, Kevin Wright, George Baldi, John Brown and Jeff Thacer has modernized the art of a cappella. Their mind-blowing music that blends elements of rock, pop, jazz and soul is deceptively witty, unabashedly innovative while staying cheerfully accessible. The group brings down the house everywhere they go, building legions of fans across the globe. The sound you are about to hear has occurred once in the history of pop music, claims Rockapella producer, writer, arranger Scott Leonard. Every element of this sound is unique our world-class voices and one freak of nature combining to shred the noise glare and free the music, simple soulful ass-kicking light. Hearing is believing.
