The Unisons

The Unisons were founded in 2008 by Aaron Templar Smith, after he realized the high and unfulfilled demand for a TTBB-voice a cappella group at Northeastern. The original eight singers had a combined vision to produce an a cappella experience that anybody could enjoy, while also promoting the arts at Northeastern and in Boston through extensive collaboration. The Unisons finally achieved University-recognized group status on February 22nd, 2009, and they made their explosive debut on campus with a spectacular performance on March 20th, 2009.

By 2011, The Unisons made their competitive debut after qualifying for an ICCA Northeast Quarterfinal. A year later, they released their first album: Off the Cabeza.

In recent years, the group has advanced to the ICCA Northeast Semifinals twice. In 2016, a snippet of their semifinal performance was featured on the reality TV show Sing it On! They have also followed up their debut album release with their sophomore effort: None the Wiser. The Unisons continue to perform at events around Boston and across the Northeast.

We don't require any special setup to perform; just give us an audience and our voices will do all the work! We have performed in venues as simple as a foyer staircase and as elaborate as Boston's Symphony Hall, and everything in between. If any number handheld mics are available, we always appreciate it, but that's not at all necessary. If we will be mic'ed, it is helpful for us to have at least three microphones so that we can make sure the soloist, percussion, and bass can all be heard clearly.
