BOCA 2016 is moody, dramatic, and intense, while BOHSA 2016 is peppy and upbeat. Both are full of jaw-dropping talent!

College groups continue pushing the envelope in the studio — and in live performance! We are thrilled to feature our very first live track on Best Of College A Cappella this year.

But the huge news is that high school a cappella is where it’s at. No longer a bi-annual compilation, Best Of High School A Cappella received enough incredible submissions not just to put out a full album this year, but to put out an album that rivals BOCA.

You won’t want to miss out on these albums! Albums drop in January. Stay tuned to Facebook, Twitter, and of course varsityvocals.com for updates — and congratulations to the selected groups!
