The Compulsive Lyres is an a cappella group at the University of Michigan. The group includes both music and non-music majors and sings various arrangements of pop, rock, and R&B songs.
The Compulsive Lyres won the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella (ICCA)[1] in 2002, and remain the first and only Michigan group to win that honor. Following their win, the Lyres were invited to perform on The Today Show with Matt Lauer, and were featured on the Best of College A Cappella album.[2]
The Lyres hold auditions every September following U of M's "Acarush." Audition sign-ups take place in person on campus as well as on their website.
