We recently had the privilege of performing at The Obama Presidential Center ( ) 💙✨

Fun fact: We are the first group to have performed in the space ever in front of an official audience!

The opening of the OPC is an incredibly historic moment! The Center will provide exciting programming, educational events, and dynamic exhibits highlighting the Obamas’ legacy while advocating for change in our communities. The cultural roots of the South Side of Chicago run deep — and we are so excited to see this history find a new home.

It was such a delight getting to share our music with the community! We enjoyed highlighting some of the incredible arrangements and compositions from our ensemble members Khelsey, Caitlin, Seth, and Malik. It was truly amazing!

Thank you again to the team at the Obama Presidential Center! It was truly such an honor performing for such a responsive audience. Opportunities like these are exactly why we do the work we do.

Don’t miss the official opening of the Obama Presidential Center on June 19! And, don’t forget to stay up to date on all of our upcoming events via our link in bio. 🔗
