Rhythm & Jews

RnJ is UChicago's premiere (and only) Jewish a cappella group. We are a healthy mixture of Jews and non-Jews and guys and girls, but we all love to have fun singing together! We perform at events around Chicagoland, participate in the ICCA a cappella competition, and organize singing tours in cities around the country.

First and foremost, we are a group of friends who live together, eat together, work together, and hang out together. We are men who seek to enhance our college experience, complimenting our academic pursuits by providing a fun and supportive environment that allows us to thoroughly enjoy everything that The University of Chicago and the City of Chicago have to offer.
