Rockapella

Rockapella at the Vern Riffe Center for the Arts

In 1995, one of the very first groups to perform at the newly-opened Vern Riffe Center for the Arts in Portsmouth, Ohio, was none other than Rockapella. Since then, Rockapella has become one of the world’s most sophisticated, lasting, and imitated vocal groups around today. Since the early ’90’s, when they first achieved national television fame on PBS’s Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego?, they’ve toured the globe and provided a funky powerful soundtrack to several generations of vocal music fans, while keeping it all fresh along the way. With buckets of catchy original pop songs, and complete contemporary revisions of sparkling Motown, pop, and soul classics, this group has always been the one to watch and hear. Rockapella has demonstrated the raw power of pure vocal talent and originality, to audiences around the world. “Often imitated – never duplicated” applies here. They’re back, and better than ever.
