Harmony Sing-Along of Popular Songs from the 60s and 70s

Details

Finally, a chance to sing together well known songs of the 60s & 70s.

Sung in a song circle fashion, each person picks a song from a songbook of popular songs from this era (see below) for which our talented guitarist(s) will lead us through the verses. Afterwards, we move to the next person in the circle and repeat!

Fun, lots of opportunity to sing your heart out to songs you long to sing.

Here's a little bit about the organizers:
