VOX MACHINA, An Exandrian Musical, was a year-long labor of love from the minds and talent of over 70 volunteer writers, singers, musicians, and artists, and no budget. On February 23rd, 2018, we released a full album of nearly 50 fan-created songs in homage to the Dungeons and Dragons active play series “Critical Role” and the acclaimed broadway musical Hamilton. We reshuffled and rewrote the entire soundtrack of Hamilton to adapt over 188 hours of “Critical Role” into a 2.4 hour musical album.
