About me
The Virginia Sil’hooettes are UVA’s most award-winning a cappella group. Since their founding in 1989, the Sils have enriched the University of Virginia with stellar and nationally recognized a cappella music. Their most recent studio album, LYLAS: Love You Like A Sil, received a Best Of College A Cappella 2024 feature and the the Contemporary A Cappella Recording Award (CARA) for Best Upper Voices Collegiate Album or EP. The Sils will sing anything from classic rock to 90’s rap, pop punk, alternative, singer/songwriter, country, reggae, Top 40, and of course, Virginia standards. We also pride ourselves on writing and performing all of our own arrangements, and we constantly challenge ourselves to push the limits of our musical innovations every year. While music is the commonality, the Sils hail from unique and diverse backgrounds, creating an eclectic group of people who sing but also pursue different academic interests.
