BroadBand at The Beacon Coffeehouse
with special guests The Works
Friday, April 11, 2008 @ 8 p.m.
Harmony at a higher bandwidth
That’s the BroadBand signature: with 16 women’s
voices, they create a rich, distinctive sound on even the most
complex arrangements. Singing in as many as nine parts, BroadBand
offers a beautiful harmonic blend and an engaging a cappella
performance experience to their audiences. They choose arrangements
that are snazzy, melodic, and unique. Their repertoire includes
jazz, pop and contemporary styles of music, as well as original
novelty compositions.
Great music for great causes
It’s part of
BroadBand’s mission to make a cappella entertainment
accessible for fund-raisers, schools and other good causes. More
than 75 percent of their performances support schools or charities.

The Works
Joining BroadBand is one of Boston's favorite a cappella singing
groups, The Works. Two women + four men = great tunes! The Works
perform an eclectic mix of contemporary close harmony from the B-52s
to Gershwin; from Ricki Lee Jones to James Brown. Combining gorgeous
harmonies with witty songs, The Works are sure to entertain with
fun-filled music for any audience. For more information, check out
their website at
