Founded in 2009 by Brad Wells, Roomful of Teeth is an eight voice ensemble committed to exploring the full potential of the human voice through study with masters from non-classical traditions all over the world.

Roomful of Teeth won a Grammy Award earlier this year for their self-titled album. They’ve been in residency at MASS MoCA this month and perform in MASS MoCA’s Courtyard C tonight at 8pm.

Brad Wells, in addition to being the founder of Roomful of Teeth, is the Lyell B. Clay Artist in Residence and Director of Choral/Vocal Activities and Lecturer in Music at Williams College. He is a conductor, singer, and composer.
