UMassGives 2024
We are the UMass Dynamics, an all-gender inclusive a cappella group on campus. Founded back in 2005, we are one of the oldest “co-ed” groups at UMass and are still going strong after 18 years of singing together! We pride ourselves in being a group of talented singers and student arrangers who perform fun and innovative a cappella music on campus, at other schools, and around our local community!
Every two years, we aim to record and release an album to showcase the hard work we put into our music. Recently, we were fortunate enough to be featured on the “Voices Only 2022” album that highlights the best of scholastic and non-scholastic a cappella in the world. This coming summer marks the start of our recording process, and with your help, we would be able to cover the hefty costs that come with it. Anything helps and we greatly appreciate every donation, no matter how small!
