Male Barbershop Chorus

Based in Lowell, MA

One definition of "songster" says that the term is "not often applied to human beings." We find that pretty strange, since the theme song of the famed a cappella Yale Whiffenpoofs includes the line: "Gentlemen Songsters off on a spree." That's where we got the term.

There really is no average Songster. Our individual musical talents and experience are diverse. Some of us have little or none, while others are accomplished musicians. We represent all walks of life and our age differences span 60 years. But as Aristotle said, "The whole is greater than the sum of its parts." The bottom line is that we are simply a group of men who share a love of music, performance, and friendships that continue through the years.

Our goal is to provide audiences with artistic and invigorating performances while we enjoy camaraderie. We have sung the national anthem at Gillette Stadium and the Boston Garden. We have organized and participated in shows that features classic barbershop melodies as well as pop tunes. And we have brought our voices to enhance numerous senior living, high school, university, and community events. We continue to strive for musical excellence in all we do, and in doing so continue to increase our presence in our surrounding communities.

A Cappella.
