What are some good acapella groups in the US or UK or Canada?
My favorite ones from Germany include Basta and the Wise Guys. Of course I know the King’s Singers.
Who else is good? I’d like to try some new CDs.

I have a soft spot for Rockapella since watching them back in the day on“Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego?”
I don’t know if it’s representative of their best work, but once of my favorite songs of theirs is “I’ll hear your voice”.
Oberlin College has a 100+ year tradition of acapella groups. It’s where a lot of acapella singers who have recorded come from. I dont know if there are any albums that groups from Oberlin have produced, but… :)
There’s a group called Straight No Chaser that now performs professionally but started at Indiana University (the college amateur group still goes by the same name). They released a Christmas album this past year and it’s really good – they have a couple of others as well, but I haven’t heard them.
Group: Manhattan Transfer
Solo: Bobby McFerrin
A lot of universities here have a capella groups. Tufts University’s group, The Beelzebubs, are especially good.
I LOVE Straight No Chaser!!!!
Wonderful suggestions. Thanks a lot! I’ll check them out.
