“Men, singing songs. Some of them are funny.”
Â
The Spooky Men’s Chorale, described as a “tsunami of Gregorian male voice polyphony” (The Scotsman, 2018), are coming to Goulburn this August with their absurd and grandeur renditions of two Ukrainian song’s and Yothu Yindi’s ‘Treaty,’ amongst much more in their unique, vast and rumbling take on the ‘twin pillars of grand foolishness and the quest for the perfect subwoofer-rattling boofchord.’ Combining elements of music and theatre to create a unique performance and musical experience, the Spooky Men’s Chorale is a rare experience locals don’t want to miss.
Under their belt the Spooky Men’s Chorale has a vast history of gigs that’ve turned their audience teary-eyed or loose jawed in awe since their formation in 2001. Over 750 gigs including 8 major festivals in the UK and their seven recorded albums depict their motifs of ‘Georgian male polyphony, a running joke on man as a vast, oblivious useless object, whispers of clown, bouffon and Monty Python, and forays into massively pleasurable grunting tribalism.’
Does the listening experience sound like it won’t quite be enough? Well, you’re in luck- the Spooky Men’s Chorale are doing a workshop prior to their concert, the ‘Sing Like a Bloke Workshop,’ and it’s not excusive to men. Spots go for $20 concession and $30 full, worth the experience for anyone who enjoys singing or wants to expand their skills.
