A group of men singing ‘You Raise Me Up’ in the mountains will give you chills.
College singers from BYU’s Vocal Point elevate Josh Groban’s hit, “You Raise Me Up,” to new levels with their acapella performance.
Without instruments, their vocal skills highlight the lyrics and deeply engage the audience, adding fresh energy to this inspirational song.
In 1991, BYU students Dave Boyce and Bob Ahlander started the nine-member acapella group BYU Vocal Point. The group quickly became popular on campus, and their first concert sold out.
BYU Vocal Point’s Rise to Acapella Stardom
Since starting out, BYU Vocal Point has won many awards, including finishing fifth in NBC’s The Sing-Off’s third season. In December 2018, they shared on social media that they signed a record deal with Decca Gold, a part of Universal Music Group. Member Jason Bromley said, “We’re ordinary college students doing extraordinary things.”
