5 O'Clock Shadow A cappella Group
Five O’Clock Shadow (FOCS) is a dynamic and engaging a cappella group hailing from Boston, Massachusetts, known for their ability to create a full band sound using only their voices.
Their intricate vocal arrangements are a hallmark, both in their critically acclaimed original music and their distinctive covers. What makes FOCS stand out is their innovative use of effects – previously used exclusively by instrumentalists – employed real-time to build the sound, feel, and vibe of a rock concert.
The band’s refreshingly authentic rapport among themselves and with their audiences produces a unique and thoroughly entertaining experience each time they hit the stage. Concert-goers of all ages have cheered the band’s performances at venues ranging from Boston’s Leader Band Pavilion and Symphony Hall to performing arts venues in Japan and all points in between.
