The Harvard-Radcliffe Veritones
Founded in 1985[1] by a small group of undergraduates including Academy Award Winner Mira Sorvino,[2] the Harvard-Radcliffe Veritones are one of Harvard College’s contemporary, co-ed a cappella groups. Along with two performances every year in Sanders Theatre, they entertain at a variety of events on campus and in the greater Boston-New York area.
Performances
The Veritones have performed for Laverne Cox,[3] Jason Alexander,[4] and Josh Groban[5] in addition to singing with Bobby McFerrin[6] on the Harvard campus. In 2013, they were featured on BuzzFeed’s Top 15 Contemporary A Cappella Performances[7] for their goat version of Taylor Swift's "I Knew You Were Trouble".
