The Virginia Belles is the University of Virginia's oldest all-female a cappella group based in Charlottesville, Virginia.[1] The group was established in 1977 by Katherine Mitchell as the female counterpart to the Virginia Gentlemen, the university's oldest a cappella group.[2] Completely student-run, the Belles continue to perform an eclectic range of vocal music from oldies and classic rock to indie and R&B.[3] They sing in and around Charlottesville, and up and down the East Coast and all across the U.S.[4] (often wearing little black dresses), and have received awards and honors from internationally acclaimed organizations such as the Contemporary A Cappella Society, Varsity Vocals, and the Recorded A Cappella Review Board.[5]
