Accent A Cappella
Accent A Cappella was founded in 2001 by Laura Silva and Cara Christeson, becoming the first a cappella group at the University of Florida and one of the first in the South. Over two decades later, we stand as a group run by University of Florida students of various majors, identities, voice parts, and musical interests. A principal aspect of our group’s mission statement is that we strive to create a second home for everyone involved. With this group being a long withstanding part of UF’s history and culture, it is important to recognize the message we send to our members, supporters, audience and prospective members. We value the progress of what the group has become, and want to continue to share our love of music with the world and honor the music we have made over the 25 years as a competitive a cappella group.
