The Dynamics is an integral group on the University of Massachusetts - Amherst A cappella scene. Each year, we bring a fresh repertoire to the stage as we perform at events from A cappella showcases to university–sponsored events, from international competitions to coffee houses.
Our love for great music has not only brought us together as a group, but it has also won us acclaim, both at the university and within the competitive sphere. We have qualified for the quarterfinals of the International Championship for Collegiate A Cappella (ICCA), and have released our first full–length studio album "Crescendo" . Despite all of this, the Dynamics consider our sense of commitment to each other and love for what we do to be our crowning achievement.
We believe that a cappella music should be fun, and we hold that the best way to create enjoyable music is first to enjoy it ourselves, and then to invite those who watch and listen to join in the fun.

What People Are Saying About Crescendo
"As it stands, Crescendo is possibly the best mostly-unadorned collegiate album that I've heard in years. And to keep it even more along the Suffolk Ramifications tip, Crescendo is also a debut album. Man oh man.
Great singing is the cornerstone to this album. Everything is smoothly delivered. There is a clarity and precision to their group sound that simply jumps out from my speakers. I found myself singing along to songs that I'm sick of, and that's a rare feat. Each vocal line works as a unified voice, blending into this amazing wall of sound and phrases. These kids are excellent musicians, masters at nuance, tempo, stillness and yes, even dynamics"
-Thomas King, of the Recorded A Cappella Review Board
