๐ŸŽตCALLING ALL SINGERS๐ŸŽถ 

Ever wanted to ring a chord that gives you goosebumps?  The Marin Barbershop Chorus -- a 71 year tradition of harmony in Marin county -- is looking for a few more men to join the fun!  
We have openings in all four parts:
  • Tenors (high voices)
  • Leads (melody makers)
  • Baritones (the "glue" of the harmony)
  • Basses (the foundation!)
Do I need to be a pro?
Nope! You need to be able to carry a tune. While reading music or a cappella sing experience is a plus, it's not required. We provide high-quality learning tracks so you can practice your part in the car or at home.

Come check us out!
Guests are always welcome to drop in, listen, or join a song.  No strings attached!
๐Ÿ“†When: Mondays 6:30PM to 9:30PM
๐Ÿ“Where: First Presbyterian Church (Duncan Hall) 72 Kensington Rd, San Anselmo
