Founded in the fall of 2004 under the name “Underground Sound,” InVox is a co-ed a cappella group of young professionals from Chicago, IL. The name InVox is derived from the Latin vox meaning voice. The members of InVox use their voices to push the limits of contemporary a cappella in order to bring new life to songs across a wide variety of genres. From the standards of yesterday to the hits topping the charts today, InVox reinterprets and reinvents each song with skill and enthusiasm. Whether it’s performing at a local watering hole, on a stage in a theatre or caroling in a hospital, InVox provides entertaining experiences to its audiences through unique charm and an engaging performance style.
