Old Songs Home Community Hall, 21 Gratwick Road, BN11 4BH

The Secret Shore Singers are a rousing bunch who get together to learn and sing shanties from all parts of the world. They have been singing together for about 6 years. They were formed after a 2 year HLF project that explored the folklore, history and songs of the south coast by those who didn’t want to stop singing!

Shanties are rousing and heartfelt and a delight to sing. The fortnightly gatherings are great fun and a chance to give full welly to your voice!

Although I still run shanty sessions from time to time, this regular group is now being facilitated by Jonny Mott, a wonderful and inspiring chap. All details can be found by emailing Jonny – jonnymottmusic@gmail.com

The sessions are in two locations - Worthing and Littlehampton. For full details please contact Jonny.

Oi! Fancy a SING?
Like the idea of joining a choir but can’t commit to weekly sessions?
Enjoy singing with others but can’t find the time to come out in the evenings?
Fancy a spot of harmony singing but don’t want the pressure of performing?
No problem!
Todmorden’s Secret Singers is a women’s choir, meeting on Wednesday mornings at the Fielden Centre. We sing for ourselves, we don’t perform, it doesn’t matter if you can’t come every week, there’s no homework, no audition, no need to read music, and there’s no requirement to pay for a block of sessions. It couldn’t be simpler.
Sessions are £6.50 – please bring cash.

We rarely have a week off, but do email me before your first session to check there’s not been a cancellation for any reason.

Wednesday 10.15am - 11.45am

The Music Room, Spring Grove House, West Thames College, London Road, Isleworth TW7 4HS

Shakti Sings is a non-audition community  choir.

We learn  joyful uplifting songs in harmony and perform them outside next to the River Thames at the end of the day (or in the case of May 18th on the following day at our picnic).

What’s special about us is that we don’t meet every week.  While you’re encouraged to (and we think you may WANT To) participate as often as possible, it’s not compulsory to attend every month.

Members also have the opportunity to join us twice a year singing at sunrise at Stonehenge at the summer and winter solstice.

We believe singing is for everyone so come along and try it out, we’d love to welcome you.

Sing for joy, sing together, sing to the land.

Next dates: May 18th (&19) , June 15th 2024.
