OUR FOUNDERS
Meet the people behind the UK A Cappella Society
GEMMA DAVIES
Co-Founder
Gemma's a cappella journey began when she became a founding member of The Bristol Suspensions in 2014. She fell in love with a cappella and threw herself into every opportunity it gave her. She was Secretary of the Bristol Suspensions, and co-directed their Madness/Magic music video.
​
In 2016, she volunteered with Voice Fest before hosting a number of community-building mixer events for graduates and lending a hand with the first ever UK A Cappella Ball.
​
She then joined Varsity Vocals as a Production Assistant Trainee before swiftly moving up the ladder to become UK Producer in 2019.
CHRISTOPHER WITHAM
Co-Founder
Chris started performing A Cappella over 10 years ago, and has been involved with the community ever since.
​
Starting out in his school's auditioned group, he eventually became a member of The Techtonics, with whom he recorded 2 albums, travelled on numerous tours, competed in Voice Fest, and performed in a sell out Edinburgh Fringe run. Following his graduation he started volunteering with Varsity Vocals on the ICCA, leading to him becoming a producer for the competition.
​
Chris hugely values the opportunities that A Cappella has given him, and is committed to making sure these are available to everyone, no matter their circumstance.
