Imagine a group of novice but enthusiastic gentlemen who gather together to learn new songs and enjoy the challenge of performing for varied audiences – and you have the Tamworth Southside Uniting Church Men’s Choir.
With a growing following and repertoire, the joy they bring, and admiration they inspire, is well received! Even professionals such as well-known country music and gospel singers Carter and Carter, have invited them to perform as a supporting act in Tamworth’s Capitol Theatre during the 2018 and 2019 Tamworth’s Country Music Festivals.The Choir has been asked to join Carter and Carter again in 2020. The Tamworth Southside Men’s Choir was founded approximately 25 years ago to provide a bit of fun at a church camp. They then started to sing occasionally at Sunday morning services and for baptisms. Invitations then started to come for appearances at local charity events and special requests are frequent for the Choir to sing The 23rd Psalm at funerals.
The Men’s Choir is comprised mainly, but not exclusively, of church members. We welcome new members. Auditions are not necessary but attendance at rehearsals, one hour each fortnight, is helpful.
