<description>While in the Boston area earlier in 2020, we were delighted to spend some time with Voices of Soul from Brandeis University. In 2019, they launched a new event bringing together collegiate groups from around Boston, and we talked about where that might go in the future, along with how they had been taking advantage of a low-turnover year. We also lament the death of their "King Of Getting Things Done," Andrew. Then we find out he's not dead.</description>

Earlier in 2020, we invited Voices of Soul into the mobile studio to learn more about the group and how they're sounding this year. We talked about being a genre-specific group, their new event CABO, and more!

<description>Led by Christopher Diaz, the Ars Nova from Dayton, Ohio's Miami Valley School hasn't been around all that long - but in only a handful of years, they've developed a sound that's impressive. The school (Pre-K through 12th grade) has only about 500 students, and we talk with the group about arts programs in such a small school. We discuss the decisions they're making around their first album, and lots more - and hear them sing in our mobile studio!</description>

At the Kettering Festival in late 2019, we spent some time with Ars Nova from Miami Valley School. We talked about small school a cappella, recording their first album, and heard them sing for us!

<description>In late January of 2020, we sat down with Distilled Harmony to talk about how they balance the group between pressures of competition and the desire to have fun and be chill once in a while, how they experienced the recording process when creating their latest album, and more - and they sang for us live in the mobile studio!</description>

We had a great time with Distilled Harmony when we sat down with them in early 2020. We talked about their journey out of the basement (literally!), their sound today, and more - and heard them sing live!

<description>Argyle High School's Remedy has only been around a few years, but is already sounding strong. They've been dramatically increasing their rehearsal time and productivity - and thus, their quality - since they got started. We brought them into the mobile studio to sing for us, and to talk about the secrets to their group's rapid evolution.</description>

In late 2019, while at SING! Texas, we got together with Remedy, from just north of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. They were hot on the heels of a great showcase performance, and sang for us while sharing stories.

<description>It was a fun time when we brought Bostonality into the mobile studio! We explored the role of creepiness in the group (they're not creepy - I promise!), discussed how to be serious about the music but not ourselves, and talked about when it's time to record. Along the way, they sang some great live tunes!</description>

Early in 2020, we were in Boston, and got the chance to sit down with post-collegiate group Bostonality. We heard what they're singing these days, as talked about who they are and how they work together.
