transit vocal band - Combining soaring leads, smooth harmonies, and a thumping rhythm section, transit demonstrates the power, versatility, and emotion of the most natural instrument of all, the human voice. Formed in 2005, transit is a dynamic vocal band that emphasizes engaging live performances, inspiring recordings, and continual innovation of their art form. Using nothing more than their voices and microphones, transit performs a wide variety of music.

Cognitive Resonance - Cognitive Resonance was created in January of 2011 out of its Founders' pure love of a cappella music and the desire to never stop performing. Consisting of alumni of collegiate a cappella and choral groups, Cog Res has been delighting audiences from Raleigh to New York City with its unique brand of post-collegiate a cappella music, always striving to raise the bar for what semi-professional groups can accomplish. They are a proud member of CASA's Contemporary A Cappella League.

Second Shift - Second Shift is a post collegiate a cappella group located in the Triangle (Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, NC). They're a co-ed, non-profit group that sings a wide variety of song styles. So, why Second Shift, you ask? Well, all of us have day jobs, and we do this for the love of the music. Once we fit in other important things such as family, and having an occasional good time, sometimes it seems like there's little time left over. Founded in January 2007 as The Looney Tunes, we reformed as Second Shift in September 2009. Based in the Research Triangle Park area of North Carolina, our members come from all over the Triangle and have a wide variety of singing experience. We divide our year into Spring and Fall periods and elect new leadership each period. Each group member contributes to keep the group moving forward, and we also have a lot of fun together!
