The Current – NYC A CAPPELLA GROUP
Location: New York, NY
Type: Singers
The Current, a semi-professional mixed a cappella group in NYC, is seeking new voices for ongoing group membership, for the first time since 2019. The group, founded in January 2011, focuses mainly on pop, rock, and other contemporary radio-like material, including indie and original music.
SEEKING SINGERS: All adult ages (must be over 21; our present roster spans 20s, 30s, and 40s), all voice parts except tenors. Looking for solid pop/rock/R&B voices with equal musicality and performance skills. Fun personality and team-player vibe essential. Collegiate/post-collegiate a cappella experience a big plus. Vocal percussion, beatboxing, and/or arranging abilities a bonus, though not required.
The group rehearses weekly, on Wednesday nights from 7:00-9:30pm in midtown Manhattan, and is in the process of returning to a regular performance schedule. Pre-pandemic, this meant club performances, benefit shows, special events, and/or busking approximately once every 4-6 weeks, in and around the city. Performance opportunities are accepted as much as collective availability allows; membership is ongoing, and all members maintain day jobs.
The Current is a proud member of the Contemporary A Cappella League (CAL) and a past winner of the Harmony Sweepstakes award for Best Original Song.
