All the King’s Men have won overall university champions for the Voice Festival UK 2012 against really tough competition. Having got through to the final in the London regional heats, the team went on to win outstanding musicality against Voice Versa for ‘True Colours’ and The Oxford Gargoyles with their performance of Hallelujah. Add in Henry Southern win for outstanding choreography and All the King’s Men took home the title. The festival exists to raise awareness and popularity of  a cappella art and to support the development of the existing UK a cappella scene. Winning the festival could open some great doors for the group, previous winners have been invited to perform in the Lincoln Center in New York, as well as supporting some of the world’s most famous a cappella groups, such as ‘The Swingle Singers’ and ‘The Real Group’. On the back of a sell out Edinburgh Fringe and East and West Coast USA tours looks like this year is going to be just as busy.
