On Tuesday, October 18 2016, the SeaChordsmen hosted their annual "Capture Your Voice and Sing" night with these wonderful 11 guys. For the next five weeks they will learn the joys of singing Barbershop music under tutelage of the chorus director Ted Chamberlain. From the smiles on their faces, we're guessing they had a good time. It's not too late for any interested male to start next week.
Please come to the Queen Anne Farmers Market and you might hear fantastic Barbershop Music, and just maybe get to sing with us also.
The audience loved the performance of "Disney Noir" based upon comments from our Social Media sites. The Henchmen (pictured above), Cruella DeVil, our hero Steve, heroine Belle, and the SeaChordsmen all delivered a performance for the ages. Then include current Evergreen District Quartet Champs 4.O, AND international quartet Main Street into the mix and the effect was tremendous.
Please come to Guest Night on 19 July, 7:00pm, and maybe you'll be on stage with us in October as we compete at the district competition in Vancouver, WA.
The Seattle SeaChordsmen once again perform and teach the art of Barbershop singing to the folks at the 34th Northwest Folklife Festival. Director Ted Chamberlain conducts a quick class about Barbershop singing and soon has everyone singing several Tags (the short phrases at the end of songs). The finale has audience members singing a song (Aura Lee) under his direction. They were great.
The SeaChordsmen conducted a weekend retreat at beautiful Pilgram Firs Camp and Conference Center in Port Orchard, WA. We put in many hours of intensive rehearsal for our upcoming show, "Disney Noir". This show is the MUST SEE, CAN'T MISS barbershop event of the Summer!!
The SeaChordsmen achieved their highest score in over 30 years, and each of their six quartets provided wonderful barbershop music for the audience. Come join us on Tuesday night to see what all the "FUSS" is about, and we'll "Treat you Right"!
The SeaChordsmen is a Barbershop Chorus of 50 members who perform barbershop harmony in public and private performances. The Chorus also aids youth music education through their support of the Ballard High School music program and the Harmony Explosion Northwest youth music program. The organization provides annual support to the Pike Place Senior Center and Food Bank, Mary's Place, and Path with Art as a way of giving back to their community.

The SeaChordsmen 2015 Novice Quartet Winners (Waiting on the Interurban) performed for the University Congregational Housing Association's (UCHA) 11th annual fundraising dinner on March 19, 2016 at the Seattle Yacht Club.
They performed magnificently and helped raise $80,000 for a house UCHA purchased in West Seattle for formerly homeless adults in treatment at Transitional Resources, a mental health agency. Way To GO!
