M-PACT at Downtown Live
“One of the BEST Vocal Ensembles in the WORLD.” – SF Chronicle

Bristol, CT – [April 23, 2026] – M-Pact, globally known vocal group will perform in Bristol, Connecticut on Saturday, April 25, 2026 at 7:00 p.m., as part of the Downtown Live event series at the Rockwell Theater.

Imagine the smooth soul of Stevie Wonder, the percussive power of Stomp, the funk and groove of Earth, Wind & Fire, the rich harmonies of Take 6, and the brassy swagger of the Michael Bublé Big Band -all created using only the human voice.

Hailed by the San Francisco Chronicle as “one of the best pop/jazz vocal groups in the world,” M•PACT has carved out a global reputation as a trailblazer in vocal music. Based in Los Angeles, this award-winning ensemble has captivated audiences with a sound that is both raw and refined, and always refreshingly human, a bold contrast to the heavily produced soundscape of today’s music scene.

Arianna Therriault, Arts and Culture Supervisor for the City of Bristol, noted, “This is a unique show for Downtown Live, and we love that it features Bristol Native, Andy Degan!”
M•PACT has graced fine arts halls and major jazz festivals across four continents, sharing the stage with a diverse array of artists such as Sheryl Crow, Boyz II Men, Natasha Bedingfield, Ray Charles, Natalie Cole, Bobby McFerrin, the Woody Herman Orchestra, and the Maynard Ferguson Big Band. Their music has also found its way into TV themes, radio playlists, and Disney animated films, continually expanding their reach and legacy.

Known for their dazzling vocal acrobatics, inventive arrangements, and magnetic stage presence, M•PACT delivers more than just a concert - they create an immersive musical journey. It’s no wonder fans often describe their shows as a "Technicolor soundscape" and a “Cirque du Soleil of Song.”
Superintendent Dr. Josh Medeiros remarked, “We love having such amazing talent grace the stage at the Rockwell Theater, I know this show will be one our patrons won’t soon forget!”
Now entering their 30th year, M•PACT is working on their ninth full-length album in collaboration with Grammy-nominated arranger and producer Roger Treece. With this new chapter on the horizon, one thing remains certain: M•PACT’s voice will continue to resonate with music lovers around the world for years to come.
