The Persuasions a cappella group were born in Brooklyn in 1962, singing a cappella under corner streetlights and in subway corridors. Their voices powerfully echoed through their urban terrain, weaving gospel, soul, early rock and jazz into melodic five-part harmonies.
Since being discovered by Frank Zappa, The Persuasions have recorded 26 albums featuring their uniquely re-imagined arrangements of music by Frank Zappa, U2, The Beatles, The Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan and Barenaked Ladies. Their fans are consistently treated to a vocal buffet of soulful, harmonic and joyful tracks free of any instrumental enhancements.
Jayotis Washington, Ray Sanders, Dave Revels, Samuel White, Cliff Dawson and Lawrence “L.A.” Grant are the voices and talent of The Persuasions today. With vocal arranger Dave Revels at the helm, The Persuasions have performed to sold out shows from across the U.S. and overseas.
