The Sofa Singers, a free online singing event that aims to bring people together
Our next event is 27th March at 11am GMT.
We are hoping to livestam to youtube so no-one misses out… watch this space!
The Sofa Singers is a free & weekly online singing event that aims to bring people together from around the world to spark joy and human connection. Set up by vocal leader James Sills as a response to global self isolation during the Coronavirus outbreak, The Sofa Singers bring together hundreds of people in real time for 45 minutes of simultaneous singing, learning a classic song with some optional harmonies/backing parts.
Sing as if no-one is listening…. because they won’t be! Due to to latency (delay) it is not possible to synchronise and hear all of the singers the same time. But you will be able to see each other so sing with a smile! Afterwards, there’s a virtual tea break followed by some open floor slots where individuals can say hello and share a song, a poem or a story.
Join us! Because life is better when we’re singing together.
