Vocal U A Cappella
We Are Vocal U
Vocal U is a gender-inclusive a cappella group at the University of Minnesota, established in 2011. We are a registered student organization dedicated to spreading our music across the Twin Cities and beyond, and having a great time while doing it.
We come from all different majors and backgrounds, but we're all a part of VU because we love music and the arts. More than an a cappella group, Vocal U is a family. We support and push each other to be the best performers we can be, which translates to the stage.
