A Cappellooza also will feature a performance by Backtrack, a New York-based a cappella group that got its start on YouTube and now boasts more than 10 million views and 111,000 followers. Backtrack won Steve Harvey’s “Sing Off” in 2017 and YouTube’s “Next Up” competition in 2016. The five-member group seeks to explore “the power of the human voice through unique vocal arrangements, tight harmonies and world-class beatboxing.” Learn more at www.backtrackvocals.com.
