This gig for Singing for Hope House saw choir members appear live from the Stockport choir led by their choir leader Emma Thomas. A particular well done goes to the choir members who were performing for their first time. Emma said ‘They loved it and the audience were great too! We had a really nice mix of choir members families supporting and the general public there watching the choir sing.’ The event was FREE.
It was threatening rain showers before the performance and rain it did for the gig. there were a few members from other nearby choirs there to help and sing on the day. Friends and relatives of the choir members filled the audience, creating an atmosphere of warmth and support. The choir performed songs from their recent repertoire such as ‘Green Green Grass’ by George Ezra together with ‘Shake a Tailfeather’ from the Blues Brothers movie.
Performance location: St. Mary’s Church, Meadow Ln, Haughton Green, Denton, Manchester M34 7GD

Here is a quote about the Rock Choir – ‘Rock Choir is a way for people to express themselves musically in an environment which normally would not allow them to do so. I bet a pound to a pinch of salt there are thousands of guys and girls in the UK itching to sing but are too embarrassed or worried what others may think, and let’s face it, if it makes people happy then come on UK lets get behind them!!! Rock Choir is the wonderful innovative idea which is the brain child of Caroline Redman Lusher who I have had the privilege of working with over the past 12 months. Live the dream guys.’ – Gary Chilton (Double-platinum selling singer with ‘The Soldiers’)
