Eight Beat Measure is the oldest Tenor-Baritone-Bass collegiate a cappella group at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT).[1]

Eight Beat Measure began in 1987 as the RIT Men's Octet. Originally faculty-led and formed as an extension to the RIT Singers, the RIT Men's Octet quickly expanded their horizons and branched into the world of contemporary a cappella. They changed their name to Eight Beat Measure to reflect their new attitude, and expanded from their original eight members.[1] The group's current repertoire consists of songs in the pop, R&B, and indie genres.
