The Crescendudes
In the fall of 2005, some college guys from UCF made the wrong turn at Albuquerque and squandered all of the funds from their off-shore Swiss bank account on burritos and skee-ball (which happens to be a favorite past time of Albuquerquians, mind you). They were left only with their unquenchable desire to sing and their unquestionable manliness which, as it turns out, go hand in hand. Thus began the legend of the Crescendudes.
You can pass the legend to your grandkids. We don't mind. Honest.
3rd place regional winners of the 2008 International Collegiate Championship of A Cappella (ICCA) and winners of Best Choreography for the 2008 and 2009 ICCA South Quarterfinals, the Crescendudes are a dynamic bunch of laid-back guys at the University of Central Florida who enjoy harmonizing, joking, and getting distracted for a few hours a week at the expense of their GPAs. Formed in 2005, the Crescendudes are the longest running student a cappella group at UCF.
A close-knit yet very open group, the Crescendudes encourages interaction with audiences and members in a fusion of performance, entertainment, and fun. Rehearsals are built around member schedules and e-mail communication is imperative. If you are interested in joining us, having us perform, recommending a song, or just want to comment, please feel free to write us.
