Vocal Alliance is Danvers High School’s social justice singing group. The ensemble is one of four in the choral department at DHS, and has members from both of the program’s auditioned a cappella group’s Falconize and Skywave. Vocal Alliance was formed to support and sing for events that promote the acceptance of marginalized groups and causes focused on equality. The size, make-up, and musical focus of the ensemble varies each year. In 2024-2025 the group features six treble singers and performs a myriad of styles and genres from jazz to pop (current and throwbacks), both accompanied and a cappella.
Vocal Alliance is part of the Danvers High School Music Department, which includes the choral ensembles: Concert Chorus, Falconize A Cappella, and Skywave A Cappella. The instrumental program features Marching Band, Concert Band, Jazz Band, Percussion Ensemble, and many small chamber ensembles.
Pictured above are the members of Vocal Alliance for 2024-2025: Bella Drakos, Kaelin Hampe, Ella Guitard, Piper Brett, Brooke Wilichoski and Dailin Martinez. Subbing for Brooke in today’s Eastern Division Conference Concert Hour Performance is freshman Emma Anderson.
