And though the singers may be the first to deny it, the truth is, their music is "kind of good." Go to one of their shows and you'll see how Emocappella owns the stage. The guys appear to enjoy what they do as much as the audience enjoys watching.
Between jokes, Emocappella takes on each song with ease and confidence. The members' camaraderie is apparent and seems to aid the tonality of guys who Denman says "are not people with strong musical backgrounds."
The harmonies are tight, with each member aware of others' changes in pace while still projecting his own independent stage presence. Emocappella amasses the sum of 13 upbeat characters to form a cohesive vocal powerhouse.
A new all-female group shared the stage with Emocappella at its December CD release concert. In their debut performance, the GW Sirens greeted an already warmed-up crowd with a short but sweet interlude. Clad in various shades of magenta, the 12 women took the stage while singing the Cardigan's "Lovefool," during which soloist Leslie Vaeth captured every perky vocal inflection.
The Sirens, who came together last October, were not shy about showing off their talents. Their eclectic range was apparent as they shifted gears from the subdued ballad "Song for a Winter's Night" to the feisty modern version of "Lady Marmalade."
"The image that we want to be portrayed is one of fun-loving and carefree girls who all share in the same passion for music," says co-founder Annie Mallan.
Both groups say they intend to keep working this semester. The Sirens plan to have their own full show on campus, while Emocappella will announce East Coast tour dates in the next few weeks.
