Songs in the Barbershop Style
These two quartets have been long time members of Albuquerque’s Barbershop scene and bring years of experience singing this original American art form of a cappella singing in the barbershop style. With large repertoires they can handle almost any kind of event, from the National Anthem, military tributes, birthdays, convention entertainment, a special anniversary or Valentine. They can be booked for your next event simply by contacting them. Performance fees are cheerfully quoted!
In addition to singing in quartets, all eight sing in their respective choruses: Southwest Edition are members of Route 66 Sound, a chapter of Sweet Adelines International. ABQ are members of The New MexiChords and Duke City Sound of the Barbershop Harmony Society.
