Ball in the House – five guys, five mouths. That?s it. They have performed with such stars as Cher, Jessica Simpson, The Temptations, and many more. They can even be heard on national TV and radio as the voice behind the Cool Whip commercials.
Ball in the House is a tour de force of a cappella vocal sound that must be heard and seen to be believed. The group will perform with UCA’s own A Capella Mafia at 7:30 p.m. on Dec. 7 and 8 at Reynolds Performance Hall.

Averaging 250 dates a year, Ball in the House reaches millions and is arguably one of the most successful indie bands working today.
A Cappella Mafia began in early 2005 as four guys, music students who just wanted to get together and sing for the fun of it. In the Fall of 2005, they expanded the group, allowing them to perform larger, classical, doo-wop, pop/rock, and original works for high schools, universities, and conferences across the state. These seven guys work together to create and share a sound that is unique to the University of Central Arkansas community. In 2008, A Cappella Mafia plans to compete against the world’s best collegiate at the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella.
