Each year, the ACAFEST provides Fredonia’s campus and community a truly entertaining show and celebration of collegiate a cappella music.




Some Like It Hot is Fredonia’s first, oldest and premier all female a cappella group, which was founded in 2001 under the name Out of the Blue. The group started fresh with the new name Some Like It Hot in 2002. The group has released two albums, “From the Hips” in 2005 and “Taste the Music” in 2009. Currently, the group has 16 members. Annually, Some Like It Hot invites female students who are interested in singing and performing to attend their audition.
