Rockapella
April 7, 2022 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
In 1995, one of the very first groups to perform at the newly-opened Vern Riffe Center for
the Arts in Portsmouth, Ohio, was none other than Rockapella. Since then, Rockapella has
become one of the world’s most sophisticated, lasting, and imitated vocal groups around today.
Since the early ’90’s, when they first achieved national television fame on PBS’s Where In
The World Is Carmen Sandiego?, they’ve toured the globe and provided a funky powerful
soundtrack to several generations of vocal music fans, while keeping it all fresh along the way.
With buckets of catchy original pop songs, and complete contemporary revisions of sparkling
Motown, pop, and soul classics, this group has always been the one to watch and hear.
Rockapella has demonstrated the raw power of pure vocal talent and originality, to audiences
around the world. “Often imitated – never duplicated” applies here. They’re back, and better
than ever.
