The Grammy-nominated African American vocal ensemble marked its 50^th anniversary in November 2023 with the beginning of a powerful three-year celebration honors its storied past and sets its course for the future.

Since the group’s inception in 1973 in Washington, DC, the group has thrived as a performance ensemble founded on the missions of empowerment, education, and entertainment. Its current roster includes vocalists Carol Maillard, Louise Robinson, Aisha Kahlil, Nitanju Bolade Casel, and Rochelle Rice; Romeir Mendez on upright acoustic bass and electric bass; and American Sign Language interpreter Barbara Hunt.

Throughout five decades, the ensemble’s members have worked to create engaging, socially conscious music that consistently takes an active stance toward making our planet a better place. Its musical landscape embraces multiple genres and generations and addresses civil and human rights, women’s issues, gun violence, death, love, spirituality, children’s songs, and much more.
