Steve runs all of the choirs, arranges the harmonies and accompanies on keyboard or guitar (no backing tracks here!)

All the Vox Pop choirs are friendly and relaxed, with the emphasis on having fun.

What our members say...

"If you enjoying singing and a feeling of belonging to a group that produces wonderful sound inspired by the creative and talented Steve, then Voxpop is the place for you. The sense of community and camaraderie is what makes Voxpop so special. Steve makes you feel at home, welcome and that we are all there to share in his inspired creation. It’s the most joyous few hours a week and I feel very lucky to be part of it."

"Vox Pop has been a weekly staple in my life for the last seven years; even on the dreariest of dark cold winters evenings I’m always glad I’ve dragged myself to choir. It’s the pure joy of my week, surrounded by friends who all have one thing in common - a joy of singing. It’s connecting, uplifting, inspiring, and I wouldn’t be without it. Steve makes it fun and inclusive and it’s no surprise how his choirs just keep getting bigger and better!"

"I’ve been singing with Vox Pop for just over 2 years, most recently with Indie Choir, and it’s absolutely brilliant! Steve is such a talented musician and works his magic to help us build harmonies together that sound amazing. Most importantly though it’s a great and supportive bunch of people and we have a lot of fun and many laughs. A real high spot of my week."

"I only went to the Indie Choir to accompany my wife for a taster session. Stayed for the music, the people and the beer 🙂 It’s great fun, very relaxed and life affirming. Steve is absolutely brilliant. He's also passionate about what group singing can do for people, and rightly so. If you get the chance, give it a go – it’ll be one of the best things you do for yourself."

What our members say...

"Voxpop Choirs are a great way to spend an evening singing well-known songs from artists like the Beatles, Oasis and Coldplay. Led by Steve Woods, who has a real talent for getting everyone (even me!) to tackle surprisingly complex harmonies, the sessions are so enjoyable and rewarding. It’s a great way to switch off from everyday stresses, focus on something creative, and just enjoy making music with others."

"Singing is good for the soul. Singing with a group of friendly, fun people makes it even better. The added benefit of being in a choir run by Steve is that he makes you think. He creates fantastic harmonies which can be challenging to learn but once mastered there’s a real sense of achievement."

"I love the Indie Choir! We sing the kind of songs I love - Steve is a lovely, patient,funny leader / teacher, and his harmonies are second to none .Very nice bunch of people to sing with too.A really life-affirming experience - every week!"

"Steve is often teaching us new harmonies, but is very patient if we struggle. He never tells us we have got it ‘wrong’, he just suggests we ‘have another go’. Steve has a heart for people. He is a great encourager and manages to create a relaxed atmosphere so, when we sing together each week, the whole experience is great fun. For me it is ‘therapy’. When I leave, I feel on top of the world."

"I *love* being part of the Vox Pop Indie choir. No auditions, no pressure, no solos, just a lot of fun which magically turns into something that sounds amazing and is a joy to be part of. Thanks to Vox Pop I actually look forward to Mondays."

"I have always loved singing but was nervous to join a choir as many I had seen looked quite formal. Joining Vox Pop Choirs was one of the best things I have ever done. Steve chooses great songs and creates amazing harmonies. There is a very friendly, relaxed vibe and everyone gets on really well. We have performed at many gigs which has been great fun. It lifts my spirits and is good for my soul, it's the highlight of my week."

"Never thought I would get back into singing, too worried about my vocal range or performing in public. Steve Woods is a fantastic and welcoming teacher and a great musician, able to make you feel comfortable and help make everyone sound as good as they can. Its a genuinely life-affirming, joyous and overall very human thing to get involved in and am so happy I found it."

Ed
Vox Pop Indie Choir Member
"I originally started VoxPops via a friends invitation and the desire for me to do something for myself outside of work and being a mum, wife, cook, cleaner etc. And the fact that I didnt need to audition to get in was a huge bonus. From my very first day everyone was so welcoming and lovely. Choir is FUN and Steve who runs it is just brilliant. He is an excellent musician, communicator and has a brilliant sense of humour. I had a lot of personal trauma recently, there are days that I feel overwhelmed and it is all too much, but Choir lifts my sprits and I walk away from a session feeling lighter and happier. The singing, the lovely people and definitely Steve makes VoxPops very special."

"Vox Pop is a great choir. Steve cleverly creates harmonies and then these are tweaked as we learn them to get them just right. It feels collaborative and it’s so satisfying when we put it all together and hear the results. The group is fun, friendly and welcoming and Steve is a wonderful teacher. I feel very lucky to be part of it.."
