Bent Pitch

A San Diego-based a cappella ensemble, blurring the boundaries of artistry with everything from rock classics to jazz standards and of course, the pop hits of today!

Tumblr! What have you been up to lately? We’ve been practicing with our newest members, learning some new songs, and...

*vocal percussion drumroll*

We’ve been prepping for our first competition AND first performance outside of San Diego! Are you in the LA area, or willing to travel to it? We’ll be there for the Harmony Sweepstakes this Saturday, 4/2!

Hello Tumblr! We know it's been awhile. We'll be back in full force very soon, but in the meantime, here's a quick look back at some of our recent outings! Last month, we were at the Relay for Life - Downtown San Diego opening ceremony, Deke Sharon's a cappella master class, and the San Diego Derby Dolls home opener.

Auditions!

Bent Pitch is holding open auditions on July 15th from 7:30-10. We are specifically looking for basses, sopranos, and vocal percussionists. All musical backgrounds welcome; a cappella experience preferred, but not required. Any experience with arranging is also a plus. Must be available for weekly Wednesday night rehearsals.

Audition will consist of an a cappella solo of your choice followed by note recognition, arranging and blending exercises.

Contact me here, via Bent Pitch's FB page, or at [email protected] if you're interested in signing up for an audition time slot or have any questions. Alternate audition appointments available upon request.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Changing the mood with this ‪#‎MusicMonday‬ - tonight, we're slowing it down with our rendition of Let Her Go, by Passenger. We hope you enjoy this beautiful song.

It's Music Monday (at least it still is over here on the West Coast), and we're bringing you the latest music video featuring our new lineup! Enjoy Bent Pitch's cover of The Middle by Jimmy Eat World!

TBT: a few weeks ago when we had a karaoke party with Bent Pitchers past and present!

We are (the newest iteration of) Bent Pitch!

Plus a former bass who came by tonight's rehearsal to help us out with a project, and lent us his long arm for a group selfie.

We have some exciting stuff on the horizon - can't wait to share it with you guys!

A few photos from our rehearsal last night preparing for SD AcaFest!  A few of the lovely folks who are going to be singing with us stopped by to meet, greet, and do a bit of singing together!

PS - SD AcaFest is this Saturday!  Come see some great San Diego a cappella!
