The Harvard-Radcliffe Veritones

Founded in 1985^[1] by a small group of undergraduates including Academy Award Winner Mira Sorvino,^[2] the Harvard-Radcliffe Veritones are one of Harvard College’s contemporary, co-ed a cappella groups. Along with two performances every year in Sanders Theatre, they entertain at a variety of events on campus and in the greater Boston-New York area.

The Veritones have performed for Laverne Cox,^[3] Jason Alexander,^[4] and Josh Groban^[5] in addition to singing with Bobby McFerrin^[6] on the Harvard campus.
