Rockapella

Rockapella creates a light-hearted and unforgettable holiday concert experience with their unique vocal take on seasonal favorites as well as new originals destined to become classics.
Background:
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 - four world-class voices and one freak of nature - combining to shred the noise's glare and free the music's simple soulful… Show more ass-kicking light." USA Today puts it simply, "Some say the best musical instrument of all is the human voice - if you've seen Rockapella you know that's the truth.
Rockapella are the progenitors of a new flavor of contemporary pop music; one that has spread virally across the United States, Asia and Europe. Rockapella's widespread appeal has built legions of fans throughout the USA and across the globe. Since 2003, Rockapella has been criss-crossing the country with their annual "A Rockapella Holiday" tour, spreading the joy of the holiday season through their music. Rockapella has also collaborated with the world famous Boston Pops orchestra and together they've sold-out venues throughout the Us. Often imitated, never duplicated, Rockapella remains an innovative burst of talent continuing to sell out venues around the world. The group is currently touring the globe and laying the foundation for their next recording.
Rockapella reached its first milestone as a featured performer on the PBS television special Do It A Cappella, hosted by acclaimed filmmaker Spike Lee. Created to showcase the supreme capability and virtuosity of the human voice, the program was a perfect platform for Rockapella's talent and infectious energy to be noticed. When their appearance on Do It A Cappella hit the airwaves, the doo-wop stereotype of vocal group pop music was crushed and crushed so hard that PBS eagerly came calling again. They quickly requested Rockapella not only write and record the theme music for their soon-to-be-hit show Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? but asked that the group star in the show as the house band. The daily Rockapellafest of Carmen brought ten million viewers every week for the next five years, and to this very day, at every concert the group performs, the crowd screams to hear the theme song they remember from the show.
