They have percussion without drums. They have a rhythm section without a bass. The only instruments on stage belong to the nine voices of the nationally renowned a cappella group Vocal Point. From Brigham Young University, Vocal Point captures audiences throughout the world with their stunning, high-energy performances and elaborate music videos.
With a wide range of vocal possibilities — and seeming impossibilities — these crowd-pleasers have it all: rock, pop, country, jazz and R&B that makes their family-friendly concerts a showstopper. This nine-man group takes the songs you are familiar with, revamps them and delivers a new rendition, complete with all the complex instrumentation done entirely with their mouths. Each Vocal Point member displays musicality, creativity and stage experience — a combination which adds up to original, skillful and spirited performances. “Well, that’s about the most professional group at the collegiate level anywhere,” says Deke Sharon, founder of the Contemporary A Cappella Society of America (CASA) and vocal producer of NBC’s The Sing-Off.
