Stompin’ rebel-harmony with cello & banjo: Original songs steeped in Appalachia & Eastern Europe.
moira smiley & VOCO sing powerful, emotional music with lush harmony and the delicious vaudevillian combo of cello, accordion and banjo. Sprinkled throughout their songs are rompin'stompin' body percussion sets - always a show-stopping pleasure. Voted #1 a cappella band in the U.S., the four members of VOCO create post-folk, improvisation-built songs while digging into old Americana and Eastern European sounds. Original music and new fruits from the old songs... americana to Bartók, ethereal and gritty. > HEAR SOME VOCO
