For our last episode for awhile, we talked to the ebullient and enigmatic Jim Boardman - a cappella's biggest fan!

Ep. 81: Isaiah Carter, Archie Gopal, Kyle Hogan (Nomadic)

head/voice: from singers to sound creators

At long last, we had the chance to talk to some of our friends in Nomadic - Isaiah Carter, Archie Gopal, and Kyle Hogan! We talked the origins of the group, how they created their own identity coming out of the June program, and how they've transcended geography to keep their journey in motion.

Ep. 80: James Rose (Accent, Terrane)

head/voice: from singers to sound creators

James Rose is a musician’s musician - knowledgeable in a wealth of genres, can do a little bit of everything (arranging, composing, songwriting, performing, producing & educating), and very cerebral, yet effortlessly organic in his music. If you want think about how we can collectively push our musical boundaries, this week’s episode is for you!

Ep. 79: Christopher Keough & Ashley Rosa (Resolve)

head/voice: from singers to sound creators

Remember in high school singing 'Chili Con Carne' and you thought it you were nailing it but then you remember it actually sounded awful? ...just Evan? Well Resolve is the opposite of ~that~, as they are wonderfully talented yet humble and pure souls making inhumanly tight and very humanly meaningful music, and we were so happy to talk to Chris and Alyssa for another episode of head/voice!

Ep. 78: Amyna Love (Vocalist, Singer-songwriter)

head/voice: from singers to sound creators

It’s been a minute, but we can’t think of a better way to be back than with the supremely talented Amnya Love. Though she’s extremely lowkey and humble, her voice is absolutely insane, and we talked about her journey and dived deep into her ‘viral’ instagram a cappella videos!

Ep. 77: Kaedi Dalley (Citizen Queen)

head/voice: from singers to sound creators

Kaedi is an absolute superstar, and we were super fortunate to talk to her about the highs and lows of her journey on the way to becoming the ridiculously low vocal bass she is today in Citizen Queen. Learn about the meaning behind "philo," her experience at A Cappella Academy, and why she likes music so darn much.

Ep. 76: Lisa Forkish (HIVE, Vocal Rush, WACA, fmr. UO Divisi)

head/voice: from singers to sound creators

Just a few things that are contained in this heartwarming barnburner of an episode:

Ep. 75: Shannon McNulty (Educator, Blacklight Vocals)

head/voice: from singers to sound creators

We’ve heard your requests for more educators, and we’re talking to a real great one this week in Shannon McNulty! We talk education, recording, a cappella, and her childhood girl group(!). Also apparently Evan can't pronounce "Shannon McNulty."

Ep. 74: Emily Flanders (Varsity Vocals, BOSS)

head/voice: from singers to sound creators

If you know, you know.

Ep. 73: Gabe Kunda (Voice Actor, Hooked HarmonX, Acapella Is Life)

head/voice: from singers to sound creators

We are back from winter break and happy to get back into the swing of season 2 with the multitalented Gabe Kunda! Gabe is 1/2 of HookedHarmonX and 1/5 of Acapella is Life Music, as well as an accomplished voice actor and voice over artist (you've probably heard his voice on the trailers for some of your favorite movies).

More Episodes

This past weekend, we had the distinct pleasure of leading a panel at #BOSS2018 featuring four amazing guests: Sidney Gish (indie singer-songwriter), Noel Pancho (rapper/storyteller), Niya Norwood (Real Entertainment Industries, BGVs for YEBBA), Alyssa Spector (booker/promoter). We were able to get their unique ‘outside’ perspectives on a cappella and how it fits into the greater music industry - there’s tons to take away for your band or group, we hope you learn a lot!
