You can join Equivox by audition!Repercussions is our competitive, all-female a cappella group that has performed at the ICCAs (International Collegiate Championships of A Cappella) as well as been accepted to the Queens University Annual A Cappella Competition. You can join Repercussions by audition! The A Cappella Project (TAP) is our non-competitive, co-ed a cappella group. It serves as open forum for those interested in singing, arranging, and beatboxing. Tap accepts members regardless of experience, and hope to improve members’ vocal techniques and performance skills. Please note: TAP runs situationally based on level of interest.It is also worth noting that members in our competitive groups typically have considerable musical experience and a lot of time to dedicate to a cappella rehearsals, competitions, and more.
