Spooky Men's Chorale
"It takes a rare skill to be very silly, thoughtful, and sing in perfect harmony, but the Spooky Men’s Chorale manage to achieve just that.”
— The Guardian
Meet the magnificent, many-headed beast that's turned men's singing completely upside down. The Spooky Men's Chorale doesn't follow the usual rules—they've carved out entirely new territory with their mighty man sounds, unexpected tenderness, and brilliantly charming stupidity that both celebrates and gently mocks masculinity.
Since forming in New South Wales in 2001, the Spooks have become rock-solid festival favourites across Australia, the UK and Europe. With seven albums and 900 gigs behind them, they've mastered the art of finding fresh musical territory in everything from the trivial to the profound—which explains their devoted world-wide following.
Don't be fooled by their unassuming appearance, they're not just a bunch of blokes in casual hats and black clothes. Once they start singing, they'll transport you to musical worlds you never knew existed – stand back and “enjoy the beautifully sung anarchy” - Glasglow Herald.
This is choral music reimagined—funny, moving, and completely unforgettable.
