Rock Choir will be performing a number of songs with Sam including Labi Siffre classic, Something Inside so Strong and Sam’s most recent single, Sing My Heart Out, which Rock Choir appeared in the music video for.

Rock Choir was the first contemporary choir in the UK offering the general public a chance to sing without audition or any requirement to read music. With more than 25,000 members in over 340 local communities, including Poole.

It is a multi-layered social experience using education, music and singing as its core activity but offering its members much more in the shape of life changing and wellbeing experiences. There are lots of exciting performances throughout the year and many of them help raise money for charity.

Rock Choir members get together each week to attend fun, friendly rehearsals where they are taught specially arranged pop, rock and chart songs. Local Rock Choir leader, Stacey Hobday also runs rehearsals in Dorchester, Poole and Weymouth.
