“It’s the most perfect, and perhaps only, cure for the seasonal blues we can think of” – The Skinny

Choir leader Heather Macleod has over 30 years’ experience as a singer, teacher, arranger and producer. She instinctively takes the choir in directions beyond the mainstream, embracing exciting and ground-breaking opportunities and super-cool collaborations along the way. Her creativity, reputation and connections mean pretty much anything is possible.

‘Singing with Heather brings out the best in me!’

This heartful and 100-strong choir is renowned for original and adventurous collaborations in legendary venues. The experience is an exciting and creative joy ride; driven by dynamism, professionalism, good humour and musical inspiration.

‘I came out of the session feeling as though I had rediscovered how to be happy and have never looked back!

It has the heart of a community choir and the soul of a big band!

And. It’s good for you. Add your voice. Sign up now 

Free of Charge and Pay What You Can places are available. No questions asked.
