‘A CAPPELLOOZA’

Wittenberg A Cappella Groups to Join Ohio Wesleyan’s Voices-Only Concert, Featuring Backtrack, Nov. 3

Wittenberg’s Just Eve and the Wittmen Crew will perform at Ohio Wesleyan University’s sixth annual “A Cappellooza” voices-only showcase at 7 p.m. Nov. 3, in Gray Chapel in University Hall, located at 61 S. Sandusky St., in Delaware, Ohio. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m.

This year’s concert, “A Night on Broadway,” will feature classic show tunes and songs from musicals performed by a cappella groups from Wittenberg, Pitch Black (women), The JAYwalkers (men) and the OWtsiders (co-ed) from Ohio Wesleyan, and Ottertuned (co-ed) from Otterbein.

A Cappellooza also will feature a performance by Backtrack, a New York-based a cappella group that got its start on YouTube and now boasts more than 10 million views and 111,000 followers.

Backtrack won Steve Harvey’s Sing Off in 2017 and YouTube’s Next Up competition in 2016. The five-member group seeks to explore “the power of the human voice through unique vocal arrangements, tight harmonies and world-class beatboxing.” Learn more at www.backtrackvocals.com.
