Mixed Semi-Pro Octet from Chicago, IL

The Uptones (originally Uptown Sound) was formed by young professionals in Chicago who wanted to start an adventure in the world of contemporary a cappella. Our members come from many walks of musical life, including musical theatre, choirs, and college a cappella groups.

With humble roots in caroling around the city during the 2009 holiday season, the group got its first big break performing at a small cafee called Lincoln Perk in the summer of 2010 to a capacity crowd. The group continues to host bi-annual concerts and is currently recording their very first album.

Founded - 2009.   A Cappella.
