What a fantastic day it was at the recent concert held by the Bexleyheath & Eltham choirs, led by our enthusiastic choir leader, Michael Fricker! The atmosphere was electric, with smiles all around as we came together to raise funds and awareness for New Hope Animal Rescue, a wonderful charity dedicated to helping animals in need within our community. Despite the weather keeping us indoors, the spirit of the event shone brightly. We were thrilled to see so many friends and family members in attendance, all clapping along and sharing in the joy of music. It was heartwarming to witness a few members from neighboring choirs join us, adding to the powerful sound that filled the room. The evening featured a delightful array of songs from our recent repertoire, including the soulful "I Wanna Be The Only One" by Eternal and the nostalgic "Somewhere Only We Know" by Keane. Each note resonated with the audience, creating a magical connection that warmed our hearts. This concert was more than just a performance; it was a celebration of community spirit, with laughter, clapping, and even a few spontaneous moments of dancing that lit up the room. Huge thanks to everyone who helped make this event a success! Together, we truly made a difference for New Hope Animal Rescue, supporting their important work in our local area.

What a memorable evening it was, filled with music, laughter, and a shared passion for making the world a better place!Performance location: Bob Hope Theatre, Wythfield Road, Eltham, SE9 5TG

The track, which was originally performed by Keane was recorded over several months when it was performed by Rock Choir Members in the audience of a recent sold-out theatre tour which toured across the UK in 2024 led by Caroline and The Rock Choir Vocal Group.
