SONGBIRDS in Tamworth are being given the chance to join a new community choir.

The Tamworth Voices Choir Group is being formed to put on a performance at Tamworth Assembly Rooms in April and is looking for men and women to join.

Evening classes start on January 24 and then run every Tuesday until April 17, some nights at Tamworth Assembly Rooms and some at the Town Hall.

The workshops, which cost £4 per session, will be led by established singer, musician and teacher Gladstone Wilson.

The Tamworth Voices Choir Group is open to anyone aged 17 or over.

No experience is needed – just lots of enthusiasm and a love of singing.

A Tamworth Voices taster session held in December proved to be a great success, attracting more than 30 people.
