Rhythm & Roos is the student-led mixed a cappella group at the University of Akron, located in Akron, Ohio.

The Roos are comprised of about 22 members who are mostly non-music majors. They sing at various gigs on campus such as sporting events, special events, charity benefits and social gatherings. Along with performing at UA, The Roos love traveling while sharing their music and representing The University of Akron. They have sang in Washington D.C, Chicago, New York, and Pennsylvania.

Since being founded in 2005, they have been featured on Fox 8 News, The Akron Civic Theatre, Akron Rubber Ducks games, and have worked with The Man himself, Deke Sharon. The Roos pride themselves on creating a family atmosphere while making beautiful music together. They would like to thank their family, friends and fans for all of their continued support over the last 12 years!
