The Vocal Liberation Front (VLF) is comprised of Kelly High School students from the heavily immigrant, gritty Brighton Park neighborhood on Chicago's southwest side. Despite 97% of students living in poverty, the vocal music program at Kelly High is ranked #4 in the state by the Illinois High School Association . VLF is directed by dynamic and engaging teacher Eric Skalinder, a former full-time professional a cappella performer with a graduate music degree from Northwestern University, who has dedicated his talent and experience to providing urban youth with high quality music opportunities in public education.

Members: Vasette Valdez, Jason Cao, Roberto Rodriguez, Emilio Alfaro, Calista Brown, Ivan Monter, Margie Rosario, Krystal Bell
