The Nashville Singers organization was founded in November of 2008 by a handful of men committed to excellence in vocal and choral performance. The chorus performs a diverse, primarily a cappella repertoire, covering many genres of music.
In almost six years, this volunteer group has grown from four to 17 singers, learned 60 songs, released two CDs, racked up 72 performances for 38 organizations in eight counties across Tennessee, and produced a successful concert series which has attracted a combined 1600+ attendees from 41 cities in 10 states across the USA.
Their concert audiences have ranged in size from a few hundred to 4,000 people.The mission of the Nashville Singers is to enrich lives through singing and the support of music education. This support comes in the form of music education grants, college scholarships, master classes in area schools, and an annual free singing lessons program called Acappella Academy. In the last four years, the Nashville Singers have awarded $8,250 in music education grants and scholarships impacting 300 students in seven schools and two nonprofits across Middle Tennessee.
The singers are all volunteers, range in age from 22 to 83, and travel from Brentwood, Franklin, Hermitage, Hendersonville, Nashville, Portland, Smyrna, and La Vergne to participate in chorus activities.
The Nashville Singers have had the pleasure of singing for several dignitaries, including Nashville Mayor Karl Dean, United States Senator Trent Lott, Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam, and Lieutenant Governor Ron Ramsey to name a few.
In 2014, The Nashville Business Journal’s annual “Book of Lists” ranked the Nashville Singers 7th in their list of the “Top 20” performing arts organizations in Nashville.
