About us
Come Sing With Us
You’ve probably been meaning to get out of the house on a Monday night and do something that actually feels good—not just another scroll session or background TV.
Think you might belong in the chorus? Come find out.
Every Monday, a group of guys gets together to make something: four-part a cappella harmony, laughter, and a pretty good way to shake off the day. You don't need to be a trained singer, read music, or have any kind of performance background. If you can carry a tune—or even if you're not sure you can—you can give it a try.
Every Monday is an audition. You just have to walk through the door.
We'll give you the music and learning tracks, and the singers around you will help you find your part. You can jump right in and sing with the chorus, or spend some time listening and getting a feel for the group. Either way, there's no pressure to perform for anyone.
Haven't sung in years? No problem. Curious about barbershop harmony?
Come try it. Already sing? Come find your place in the sound.
There's something pretty great about hearing your voice blend into a four-part chord—even when it's your first night.
The Gold Standard Chorus is an active group of 20–30 men singing a cappella and barbershop harmony throughout the Charlotte area. We perform several times a year, including our annual Christmas show with the ladies of the Queen Charlotte Chorus. There are also opportunities to sing in quartets and smaller ensembles.
We're not just looking for experienced singers. We're looking for men who want to sing.
