Sussex Barbershop Singers

The first Brighton barbershop club was formed in 1971, and was a lively and successful participant in the barbershop scene (to find out more about the Barbershop history and style, click here). However like many it had a fallow period, but rose again in 1996 with the support of the Crawley Chordsmen (the first barbershop club to be established in the UK).  The Chordsmen and Harmonisers maintained a close relationship which gradually developed to the extent that by 2003 they had an MD in common and very similar repertoires.  So close had that relationship become that in 2004 the clubs decided to experiment with joint rehearsals. These proved so successful that our present club was formed from former Crawley and Brighton members in 2005 and moved to the new St Paul’s Catholic College building in Burgess Hill.

The Sussex Harmonisers is a show chorus which aims to entertain people across the South, but in particular in Sussex. If you'd like more details about what we could contribute to your special occasion, please click here

In addition to our weekly rehearsals we perform throughout the year to a variety of audiences, and hold social functions each year for our members and their families.

The Sussex Barbershop Singers is a chorus formed from members of the Sussex Harmonisers who wish to further develop their singing, and ultimately to compete in the annual Barbershop Convention held by our national organisation, The British Association of Barbershop Singers, and at other festivals.
