sing in community

Love to sing?

In the car, on a walk, or in the shower? Are you looking for community? Then our non-auditioned community choir, our drop-in song circle, and our free pop-up choir are for you! Sing easy-to-learn songs in gorgeous harmony with us — all taught by ear, no music to read, no singing experience needed. With no pressure or perfectionism about our singing! We allow our voices to emerge and blend just as they are.

Singers gathered in a song circle at Duncan Hall in San Anselmo

All voices are welcome

your voice is needed!

“We believe that singing is everybody’s birthright. For thousands of years all over the world people have sung — to express joy, celebration and grief, to aid healing, to accompany work, devotion and the rituals of life — without worrying about having a “good” voice or “getting it right”. Singing has been a part of life, a way of binding communities…Creating an accepting community is an essential element of our approach: a community where singing together is a natural experience that is open and accessible to all.”

— Frankie Armstrong and the Natural Voice Network

  • Joyful Voices Chorus

    Our 7-week, non-auditioned community choir in San Anselmo, with a special guest songleader on drop-in, open-to-everyone Opening Night and culminating in our community-wide Big Sing with another amazing special guest. With a consistent group, we dig into some juicier songs and deepen our feeling of community with each other.

  • Free Pop-Up Choirs

    Musical flashmobs that spread the joy of singing together! We show up at public events, like farmers’ markets, and at actions, like Singing Resistance Marin events. Then we invite passers-by to step into our circle, and we sing community-singing songs that we learn in 5 minutes! Come for some or all of the songs!

    Saturday, August 29th, 10:30am-12:00pm, in front of Belvedere-Tiburon Library for worldwide Play Music on the Porch Day!

come sing with the Amazing Lyndsey SCott!

We are SO lucky to have Guest Songleader Lyndsey Scott visiting our community, for the first time in 3 years, all the way from Iowa!

Lyndsey is truly one of the greats — fierce, funny, fearless, and full of incredible, soulful, uplifting songs. You can hear some of our favorite Lyndsey songs here, here, here, here, and here.

As always, no singing experience is needed, and there’s no music to read. Just plain fun! So come on out and sing in community on August 12th with a whole bunch of warm and welcoming humans in San Anselmo!
