Who We Are

UnderAge is a group of four young ladies (ages 14-17) singing a cappella 4-part harmony,
mostly in the barbershop style. They have been working and performing together for three years.
Each girl is an accomplished vocalist in her own right, thus making their sound strong, full and mature.
They not only sing with maturity and poise, but are also seasoned performers capturing their
audiences with wit, humor and charm.

Their list of accomplishments over the last few years is impressive. In July of 2005, in Greenville, South Carolina
they won the highest honor for women under 25. UnderAge now reigns as the 2005 International Young
Women in Harmony Rising Star Champions for the Sweet Adelines Intenational Organization.
In 2003 and 2005, they were the Pacific Shores' Region 12 champions for the Sweet Adelines' Rising Stars competitions.
In July of 2002, they were awarded first place in the small vocal group category in Los Angeles with
the World Championship of Performing Arts.

UnderAge has performed allover the country for private, public and professional shows, benefits,
educational symposiums, community service and professional sporting events.
Most recently they appeared in Detroit on the same bill as the legendary Kingston Trio, and on the
International Stage for the Sweet Adelines' 60th Anniversary and Quartet competition finals.

In July of 2005, UnderAge released their first CD "Moments to Remember", which appeals to old and young alike.
These girls are well on their way to greatness and continue to strive for excellence.
