Accent is composed of six singers from five countries, who met through
YouTube, forming one vocal supergroup. They will be performing at the
Cleveland Museum of Art's Gartner Auditorium on Friday, December 8 at 7:30
pm. The group's bass vocalist Evan Sanders is a Cleveland area native,
graduate of Brush High School (Class of 1999) and alumnus/former musical
director of Beachwood Community Theater/Beachwood Drama Camp.

In the increasingly popular world of a cappella singing groups, Accent has
carved out its own niche. Since forming in 2011, the group has released
five albums; performed at the London A Cappella Festival; played dates
across Europe, North America, and Asia; and was featured in two sold-out
Christmas shows at London’s Royal Albert Hall. Accent’s singular blend and
arrangements have been acclaimed by a cappella devotees and fellow
musicians alike, including members of TAKE 6, The Manhattan Transfer, New
York Voices and The Hi-Lo’s. The ensemble’s lush sound is embellished by
its deep and innate musicality. As Alan Paul of The Manhattan Transfer
said, “You guys carry on the vocal group legacy.”

This evening’s performance will feature selections from the Accent
discography, including holiday favorites from the ensemble’s latest
release, Christmas All the Way.
