Kanga Blue A Cappella

Kanga Blue is the only student-led co-ed female-empowering a cappella group at the University of Akron in Akron, OH.

 

The group was founded during the Fall semester of 2010, as a result of a lack of opportunities for female singers. Dr. Dale Mugler, the Dean of the Honors College at the time, had the idea to start a new female a cappella group to give more opportunity to female-vocalists. This group would later be known as “Kanga-Blue.” 

 

In April of 2014, the ladies of Kanga-Blue dropped the hyphen, performed their first bi-annual concert, and became recognized as an official student organization at the University of Akron.

​

In August of 2020, Kanga Blue A Cappella recorded their first ever song, Genetics by Kanga Blue, landing them on all the major platforms such as Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon Music, and more. 

​

As of 2021, Kanga Blue has expanded by moving from female-only to female-empowering, and they accept everyone for who they are!
