ACOUSTIX predominantly a cappella repertoire showcases a wide variety of musical styles including Vocal Jazz,
Gospel, Sacred, Doo-Wop, Contemporary Christian, Patriotic, Inspirational music and even a bit of Barbershop
Harmony. From a standard like "Bye-Bye Blackbird" to "I Get Around" from the Beach Boys, to a collection of
hits from Simon & Garfunkel, to John Philip Sousa’s “Stars & Stripes Forever,” ACOUSTIX sings a broad
variety of musical selections that appeal to audiences of all ages.
The quartet has collaborated with some of the greatest vocal arrangers in the business, including Gene Puerling,
Dr. Kirby Shaw and Mervyn Warren to name a few.
ACOUSTIX has produced five CD projects since 1991 and have appeared on another 20 audio and video

genres. Two of their releases, “Cool Yule” and “Jazz, Jazz, Jazz”, have garnered a combined three
