Keynsham Show Choir

Show Choir is the country’s fastest growing a capella choir collective, with hundreds of members across multiple groups nationwide. Brought together by a passion for musicals and a cappella singing, our groups give anyone the chance to make beautiful music in an environment that’s supportive, fast-paced, and seriously good fun.

Khoirfest!:
Keynsham Key Voices

Key Voices Community Choir is a mixed choir with members from around Keynsham who meet on Monday evenings to have fun singing. As well as enjoying making great sounds together, we know that singing is good for us physically and mentally, so it is a great way to relax and leave the stresses of life behind for a while. We turn up with our unique voices, are met by familiar faces and receive expert coaching from our talented musical director. In addition to our weekly choir sessions, we perform at events throughout the year. Our Christmas concerts which include less-known arrangements of well-known carols, are especially popular. Otherwise, our repertoire ranges from Pop to Folk to Funk to Jazz. Our songs come from around the world, some collected on our doorstep, some written recently and others from the past six centuries.

Choir Jam

It’s time for you to sing!
Have you always wanted to sing? Or maybe you used to sing, but haven’t done it for years? Maybe someone even told you that you couldn’t sing? Well, now’s your chance! Seriously, life’s too short not to do something you’ve always wanted to do.

But I’m not Beyoncé
Or Ed Sheeran. Who is? Singing in a choir is about the whole being greater than the sum of its parts. Or whatever. So if you can hold a tune, you’re in!

Fancy a change?
