"This is a truly phenomenal act, combining the energy of urban street singing with first-rate musicianship and folk roots. Their body percussion sets are a sight to behold." – Folkworks Magazine

Moira Smiley & VOCO sing powerful, emotional music with lush harmony and the delicious vaudevillian combo of cello, accordion and banjo. Sprinkled throughout their songs are rompin' stompin' body percussion sets - always a show-stopping pleasure.

Voted #1 a cappella band in the U.S., the four members of VOCO create post-folk, improvisation-built songs while digging into old Americana and Eastern European sounds. Original music and new fruits from the old songs... americana to Bartók, ethereal and gritty.
