Barbershop. Do it.
Tight harmonies, sung from the heart, with no autotune, no tracks, no instruments — just four voices, a song, and deep feelings of trust and teamwork. The music is both old-fashioned and contemporary, but always authentic, personal, and rich with emotion.
Upper voices, lower voices, mixed — every combination makes great harmony. Every singer has a place in barbershop!
