   THE UMPQUA SINGERS from Umpqua Community College in Roseburg, Oregon, are one of the premiere vocal jazz ensembles in the Pacific Northwest. This 12 member group performs a broad range of musical styles ranging from traditional swing to contemporary R & B. With ten CD’s to their credit, the group performs 45-50 engagements per year. The UMPQUA SINGERS were the featured performers at the Capitol Holiday Tree Lighting Ceremony in Washington D.C. on December 12, 2002. In addition to frequent radio and television broadcasts, the Umpqua Singers have been featured on FOX, C-SPAN, and XM Satellite Radio. (Taken off the umpqua singers Myspace page)

   In December The Umpqua Singers will be turing in Roseburgs sister city, Aranda De Durerro, in Spain. An intresting fact about us is that we are not given funding by the collage. We are compleatly self sustained, and this trip is played for by donations, and money from gigs. We are still fundraising right now, trying to make enough to last the trip.

 

   If you would like to make a donation, or you would like to hire the Umpqua Singers, please contact the Wipple Fine Arts Center at UCC. phone number is {541}-440-4691.
