Aiming for the familiar and recognizable, they will co-op almost any style to bring a smile to the audience. Influences on the group reach back to satirists of the mid 20th century, rock legends, theatrical composers, and anything with modern geek cred.

The VCU Notochords
The Notochords are an eclectic ensemble from Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) down in Richmond, Virginia. They were founded before most of the current members were even born- back in 1992 on VCU's Medical Campus. The Notochords regularly perform at campus and community events. They have also competed in several collegiate invitationals. Most recently, they performed at Kings Dominion's 2016 Opening Day Ceremony. As one might think, they lost their voices from too much screaming on rides, but luckily they have recovered. They are so excited to be competing for their third time in ACA-Idol!

Their goal this year: take home first place!

Word of Mouth
Word of Mouth, winner of DC’s first “Aca-Challenge” a cappella competition, is a mixed all-vocal band with a serious passion for contemporary a cappella and a Peter Pan complex. Formed in November 2011 through CASA, Craigslist, and you guessed it – word of mouth – its inaugural members are plucked from some of the East Coast’s premier collegiate singing groups and just can’t seem to kick the habit. Brought together by a love of all-vocal performance, Word of Mouth hopes to elevate a cappella to the next level with edgy takes on fan favorites and pop music of today.
