TAUNTON'S own Rivertones Harmony Chorus are making a rare offer for singers of all experience levels to join them.

The group, who recently performed at the Eat:Wellington Festival, will next be seen at the Taunton Together Festival on September 28.

Members are inviting those who were impressed by their harmonies to consider joining them.

It is widely recognised that regular group singing can greatly benefit mental health and overall wellbeing.

The Rivertones' musical director Peter Gover said: "I think there is something particularly beneficial about the harmony singing that we perform.

"It’s not difficult even if you have no previous singing experience but there’s real technique to it and it makes you think.

"Most importantly it’s very fulfilling and it’s fun.

"We are currently offering places on our Acapella for Fellas course which will be run over 6 weeks, one evening per week, starting on October 24, 2024. We’ll guide you through everything you need to know to join in with us."

Mr Gover continued: "We’ll guide you through everything you need to know to join in with us."

"So if you live within reach of Taunton and fancy having a go at unaccompanied harmony singing, you can sign up by going via our Facebook page or website (therivertones.org.uk) or by contacting our membership secretary, Peter Elliston.

"We’d love to see you."

The Rivertones' offer presents a unique opportunity for those interested in singing to learn, have fun, and experience the benefits of group harmony singing.
