This is a cappella for NOW! Vox One combines elements of blues, funk, gospel and folk into their own brand of “adventurous and distinctive” vocal music (San Francisco Examiner).
This concert will feature a preview of their upcoming Christmas album. Other selections may include rhythmic Indian music, “Danny Boy” and
other traditional repertoire, blues standards and R&B songs like
“Respect.” Their
meticulous arrangements, lush voicings and reharmonizations – including
vocal versions of drums, bass, horns and guitar – give familiar pieces
such as “Edelweiss” a new twist.
The group is composed of: Jodi Jenkins-Ainsworth (soprano), Yumiko Matsuoka (alto), Paul Stiller (tenor, vocal drums), Paul Pampinella (baritone) and Tom Baskett (bass).
