What is Jeena?

​

Jeena is a national South Asian a cappella competition held at the University of Texas at Austin. In Hindi, “Jeena” translates “to live". Our competition is symbolic of the emotions experienced through the art of a cappella singing, and will showcase a beautiful medley with influences from both English and Indian music by featuring the unique talent of young vocalists from all over the country. This year, the competition was held virtually due to COVID-19 restrictions.
