A Cappella Bay Singers

The A Cappella Bay Singers are a show chorus of women, who perform exciting musical arrangements in close, four-part harmony. Our music comes from movies and broadway shows, jazz and blues, the big band era, Australian songs, popular modern tunes, favourite old time melodies and Christmas Carols and festive season songs.

A Cappella sung in a Barbershop style, is a unique sound and with it comes specific techniques. To begin with, you do not need a dazzling array of singing or musical technique, holding your part is the most important initially. We provide training in breathing, vocal production and visual performance, assisting all members in developing their skills over time. Printed music and learning recordings are provided for all songs in our existing repertoire.

We are part of Sweet Adeline’s which is a world-wide organisation of women singers committed to advancing the musical art form of barbershop harmony through education, competition and performance.

The A Cappella Bay Singers entertain throughout the community and our regular performances include private workplaces, charity events, community organisations, hospitals, aged care facilities, performance competitions and more. The A Cappella Bay Singers also accept private engagements and many varied performances are presented each year. 

When you enter our singing space, you'll be taken by the dedication and devotion of singers to the art of A Cappella. Barbershop style singing has to be experienced to understand why so many women come together to enjoy it.

If you like singing well-known popular songs, meeting new friends, achieving personal goals, participating in community events and having loads of laughs... we would love to have you join us. 

If you enjoy barbershop singing or would like to learn, come and meet us at rehearsals every Monday night at the Lakes room, 2nd floor of the Hervey Bay RSL, 11Torquay Road Pialba from 7:00pm to 9:30pm. You do not have to be a member of the RSL to attend rehearsals. 

No matter what your voice range, we have a place for you.
