Group Description

Categories: Fine Arts/Music/Film

7 Days is the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities' first and only student-run a cappella group, performing original arrangements of both current and classic popular songs. We are comprised of both men and women, spanning all ages and majors, who share a communal love of music and performance.

Group's principal activities, events, or programs:

7 Days performs at concerts, High Schools, meetings, and various events around the Twin Cities region. The group of 14 members performs original arrangements of popular hits ranging from pop to rock to country. The capstone of our year is a showcase concert at the Varsity Theater in the spring.

How this group's activities benefit the University community:

Because a cappella is less popular in Minnesota than in other US regions, 7 Days works hard to spread our music and our message of diversity across the UofM campus. With members of various ages, races, and majors we represent a large portion on the University community and strive to entertain the largest audience possible.

How this group fits into its categories:

Because all of our members have a love for singing and performance, we are under the Fine Arts category.

How to get involved with this group:

We hold auditions based on need. These normally occur in the fall. Our number of members floats around 17, so we are always looking for talented and ambitious new members. Check our website for more audition information at www.umnsevendays.com
