With six decades of history and numerous recent accolades celebrating its musicality and performance, The Duke’s Men of Yale offer a refreshing take on a cappella music. Since 1952, audiences worldwide have been raving about The Duke’s Men of Yale for their brilliant musicianship and keen ability to balance a down-to-earth sense of humor with a strong sense of professionalism. With an expansive repertoire and knack for high energy performances, that set them apart from their contemporaries, “Da Doox” consistently impress. They have performed for former President Bill Clinton, multinational corporations such as Google, world-class hotels and restaurants, local businesses and schools throughout the world.
Coming off an impressive 2010-2011 season, The Duke’s released their newest album, The Chase, in 2010 to universal acclaim. They were also selected for the prestigious Best of College A Cappella and SING compilation albums, and the Contemporary A Cappella Society named The Duke’s Men one of the top five male collegiate groups in the country. As one of the most beloved collegiate groups in the country, The Duke’s Men have performed everywhere from The White House to Lincoln Center, and recently headlined a concert with Glee’s very own Darren Criss.
The Duke’s are thrilled to return to the Berkshires after their nearly sold out performance last summer. In honor of Valentine’s Day, they will perform classic love songs by such artists as Chaka Kahn, Billy Joel, Sam Cooke, and the Jackson 5, along with newer songs by Adele and Rihanna. You can’t go wrong with Da Doox!
