EmerSong Annual A Cappella Festival

The Friends of Emerson Health is pleased to present its 8^th annual EmerSong – an A Cappella Festival.

High school, college, and adult a cappella groups, including those from Concord, Weston and Lexington, will come together for a lively music festival using only their voices as instruments. Proceeds from EmerSong will benefit behavioral and mental health patients at Emerson, including relaxation tools for adolescents seen in the Emergency Department, music and gardening therapy groups for patients, and staff education and training.

Some amazing groups from local universities and high schools will fill out this year’s bill in both shows, including the Radcliffe Pitches, Brandeis University’s Up The Octave, Tufts sQ!, Brandeis’ Voicemale, Amherst Zumbyes, Concord-Carlisle’s Take Notes, Lexington High School’s PBJ, and Weston High School’s Pralines. Adult groups include Broadband and The Works, both of which have members from Concord, Weston and surrounding towns.

The shows will be emceed by Concord resident Tom Rutledge and includes cabaret-style seating, snacks, soft drinks, and a cash bar at the evening show.
