Fundado en 1948, los UC Men's Octet, a veces llamados los Cal Men's Octet o UC Berkeley Men's Octet, es un grupo musical de a cappella compuesto por ocho miembros todos varones de la universidad de California, Berkeley. Desde Billy Joel hasta Journey, el grupo toca un repertorio de varios géneros musicales, incluyendo Barbershop, doo-wop, pop y varios alternativos y una gran dosis de canciones de ánimo para los de Berkeley. El octeto ha grabado cerca una docena de álbumes y es bicampeon en el International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella (ICCA), ganaron la competición en 1998 y 2000.[1]

Mientras el octeto actuaba regularmente en los alrededores del área de la bahía de San Francisco para un par de alumnos y publico, el grupo hacia un tour alrededor del mundo incluyendo China, Australia, Europa, y buena parte del territorio estadounidense. También actuaban para los estudiantes de la universidad de California todos los miércoles del año a la 13:00 Sproul Plaza, Berkeley.

El grupo organiza una serie de conciertos anuales. "In the Fall", allí está el "West Coast A Capella Showcase" donde varios grupos de toda la nación son invitados a actuar en Berkeley. Los grupos principales del concierto fueron los antiguos campeones de ICCA, Brigham Young University's Noteworthy y Vocal Point también hubo grupos de Stanford, UCLA, USC, Mt. Sac Community College, y la universidad de Oregón. Los demás conciertos anuales del grupo incluían el "UC Men's Octet Spring Show" y en año nuevo "Unbuttoned Show"
