About Me

Since 1982, The Brown Derbies have graced the "time-honored walls" of Brown University in Providence, RI. This men's a cappella group is known for their energetic performances, expert musicianship, and unique sound.
The Derbies are available for whatever sort of gig you can imagine, from weddings to sports events. Why not invite this jolly group of gentlemen to entertain at your special event? Contact Stephan Wollenburg to arrange something.
