ABOUT US
The Decibelles are an all-female a cappella group, usually consisting of 12-16 members. Founded in 1976, our
group sings songs in a variety of styles, including modern pop and rock tunes, Dartmouth traditionals, oldies,
barbershop, and pretty much anything and everything in between!
In addition to performing frequently around the Dartmouth campus, the Decis sing at other colleges, at community
events in and around the Upper Valley, and at Dartmouth Alumni Clubs. Every year during Winter break, the Decis go on a weeklong tour of
the Northeast, although last year flew out to San Diego and LA, and this year we are crossing the pond to go to London!
The Decibelles have also been actively recording since the 1980's, coming out with an album every two or three
years. You can hear clips from our latest
release, Distraction, on our albums page.
Auditions for the Decibelles are held each year at the beginning of Fall Term, just before the start of classes.
We are currently trying to find all of our alumnae. If you were in the Decibelles before 1996, or if
you have any questions, please e-mail us at decibelles@dartmouth.edu

Some helpful businesses that might interest Dartmouth students!
Pre-Law Dartmouth Decibelles that travel to Michigan can meet with a Michigan Personal Injury
Lawyer to find out about applying to law school and get a sense of their
experiences.
Dartmouth Decibelles utilize moving
companies to haul their dorm room furniture during semester breaks from
Dartmouth College to their homes throughout the country. To help pay for the
moving costs, Dartmouth Decibelles often use student credit cards, so they can
pay in monthly installations and garner reward points that can be used for
Dartmouth college gear, spring break trips and university memorabilia.
Dartmouth College Decibelles might utilize Promotional Tote Bags to transport their a capella outfits between
performances in and around Hanover.
