Mic Drop A Cappella is a student lead a cappella group located and originated at Duquesne University. Mic Drop allows students to come together to practice, perform, and share a unique form of music on campus and throughout the country. The group has 9 student-singers of various majors who arrange and perform music from many different genres.
What We Do!
We take part in various events on and off campus in hopes of spreading our love for singing. We spend about 6 hours a week rehearsing together, and as individuals, we rehearse close to a total of another 5-7 hours a week in our own time. These events take place all year long and our training is dedicated to these projects. For example, we:
• Host an annual winter and spring concert
• Host an invitational concert in which we perform amongst various college a cappella groups from around the east coast
• Represent Duquesne University at the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella (ICCA), a competition between over 400 selected collegiate a cappella groups from the United States and Canada
• Sponsor and perform at Duquesne University events
Why We Need Your Help…
We put a tremendous amount of effort into our endeavors, but we need more than just our voices and passion to do what we love. The money will be used for:
• Entrance fees for competitions
• Travel fees
• Funding towards wireless microphones
• Payment for those who help us produce our music and take our pictures/ videos
Thank you for your consideration!
We appreciate your consideration in donating to our campaign. Your donations are an immense help in providing us with the monetary provisions needed to do what we love to the fullest extent. Nothing is better than the sound that we are able to create. The flow of music is so beautiful and complex, yet so simple, and we are proud to possess the capability to create the music that we do with only one instrument… our voices!
