Shire Choir

Shire Choir began in 2018 and has since entertained thousands of people with our special brand of people-powered fun. We’ve popped up at historic halls, popular pubs, and festivals across the Byron Shire, bringing a love of music and belief that everyone has a voice. Led by the dynamic Melia Naughton and produced by Sally Schofield, at Shire Choir the audience becomes the choir, singing a heartfelt rendition of a classic pop/rock song in three parts. Subject of a short film accompanying their Community Feelgood Tour, the Shire Choir team welcomes all voices for a mood-altering experience with guaranteed fun. Sing with us!
