Led by Ryan O’Riordan, the group juggle a mix of infectious ear worms right up to large complex pieces in a variety of languages and traditions. As a choir, we pride ourselves on being multi-generational and accepting of all the diversity and vibrancy London has to offer.As a choir we are actively supporting positive change in islington. Our particular cause that we fund raise for regularly is the Islington Centre for Refugees & Migrants, who support some of the most vulnerable members of the community. The help displaced people to stay housed, lessons in English and give a sense of community and family to those who are so far from home. We will be performing at the Sheffield Street Choirs Festival 2024 as part of a massed sing of over 900 singers.
