Benefits of Group Singing- It's Good for You in Every Way

I have a bit of a collection of articles about singing. It's so good to see my feelings validated like this.

You don't have to be in a choir and you don't have to be a "good" singer. Just sing with others, together, and you get most of these benefits. And, even singing by yourself is good for you. Humming is good, listening to music is good, and even remembering a song in your head is good.

My Singing Nights Start again soon: Sing-along Café Thurs. Sep. 11, 2025

Every Thursday in Newmarket Trinity's Sing-along Café

Every Thursday from 7-8:30 in the Fellowship Room at Trinity on Main in Newmarket. Singing (without microphones, without sheet music, with no pressure or judgement), snacks, conversation, it's an easygoing evening out. And, it's good for your health and well-being. Get off your couch, and sit down on one of ours.
