We allow our voices to emerge and blend just as they are.
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

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 the Belvedere-Tiburon Library for worldwide Play Music on the Porch Day!
Come sing in harmony with us Nov. 11 - DEC. 16!
Our All In Song Circle is back for its Fall season November 11th - December 16th! (with no circle on Nov. 25th)
Marv teaches, by ear, easy-to-learn songs of hope, resilience, belonging, and joy, mostly sourced from the modern community singing movement: 3- and 4-part harmony songs, rounds, chants, layer songs, and the occasional old favorite. No singing experience is needed!
So come out and sing with a whole bunch of warm and welcoming humans in San Anselmo! Try it once FREE if you’ve never sung with us!
