Dynamics Acapella
We are the UMass Dynamics, an all-voices a cappella group at the university. Established in 2005, we are one of the oldest mixed groups at UMass and are still going strong after 20 wonderful years of singing together!
We pride ourselves in being a group of talented musicians 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. In recent years, we were featured on the “Voices Only 2022” album that highlights the best of scholastic and non-scholastic a cappella in the world. In 2023, we had over 20,000 streams on Spotify, and in December 2024, we released our ninth studio album, “At The Tone,” on all streaming platforms.
This coming summer marks the start of our recording process, and with your help, we will be able to cover the hefty costs that come with it.
Anything helps, and we greatly appreciate every donation, no matter the amount!
