Emocapella
Emocapella (a portmanteau of emo and a cappella) is a collegiate a cappella group at the George Washington University, formerly all-male but co-ed since 2010. Emocapella was founded in October 2001 by Eric Denman and Dan Riesser, GW sophomores at the time, who wanted to form a group that purposefully deviated from traditional a cappella. The group's first performance was in December 2001, opening for another GW a cappella group, the Vibes. They were invited by Taking Back Sunday in December 2002 to perform at their opening act. Emocapella's shows include rock jumps and comedy , and it credits itself with giving the name "Guerillacapella" to doing performances in random spots on campus. Press. Emocapella has been featured in several major publications including Entertainment Weekly, Maxim Blender Magazine, and Spin magazine as well as MTV.com, and has received international mention from such sources as the British Music Magazine Kerrang!, a Japanese Radio Interview, and the German Publication Visions. "Guerillacapella" refers to "a cappella" singing focusing on impromptu concerts, "spur-of-the-moment" shows on the George Washington University's campus, described by Emocapella's president Lee Seligmann in this words: "Sometimes people stop and watch. But  it usually depends on when we perform and how drunk people are.". The performance style is named after guerrilla warfare. Albums. Emocapella has released two albums to date, "I'm Sorry" (2003) and "Is It In Yet?" (2006). Section::::"I'm Sorry". "I'm Sorry", Emocapella's debut album, was released in 2003.
