Sing Strange.
A new kind of community choir in Northampton offering something a little alternative.
Wyrd: strange, fated, other.
We sing at the intersection of the otherworldly, the overlooked, and the odd including new arrangements of songs you won’t sing anywhere else.
No auditions.
You don’t need to be able to read music.
Queer-welcoming. All genders and voice types welcome. 🌈

What We Sing.
Wyrd Voices has no fixed genre, with music choices are loosely led by the following…
🪶 Songs that have wyrd themes - gothic, magic, esoteric, supernatural.
🪶 Songs by historically marginalised composers - women, LGBTQ+, global majority.
🪶 Songs that are musically unusual - odd harmonies, rhythms, structures.
When We Sing.
We rehearse weekly during term time. Autumn 2026 will have twelve sessions in two blocks of six!
Tuesday 19:00-20:45 (doors open 18:45)
The Black Diamond (NN1 2JL)
