Sing Out Social (SOS) presents an old concept (group singing) and transforms it into a new and unique musical extravaganza!
Singing together as part of a group is as old as time itself! It is the ultimate glue that connects us all, through our bonds of family, friends and community. There is a profound sense of unity and harmony that is felt when we sing together in unison. And not only is it great fun, it’s been scientifically proven that singing is good for the heart, mind, soul and body. We all need and indeed thrive off the natural high we experience when we synchronise our voices – our brains release a whole heap of happy hormones, lifting us up, bringing us joy, excitement and healing.
The SOS show is live, energetic entertainment, taking audience participation to the next level. The show is uniquely crafted into a musical medley of all the best bits of some of the greatest hits ever written. This is a BIG crowd singalong as you’ve never experienced it before! Expertly led by piano man, Tim Sponder, the audience is transported on a live musical journey, immersed in BIG sound, BIG screen lyrics, and the gripping intensity of synchronised voices. Embarking on this new venture with SOS, Tim is reconnecting with his roots and passion: performing live music!
Like many others, Tim also understands the challenges and stresses of life and how this has increasingly led to a crisis in mental health across all ages, races, and cultures. It is his greatest desire that SOS helps to highlight how, as friends, family, and as a community, we can reach out to those adversely affected by mental dis-ease. Music, song and dance offer a natural and primary path to connectedness and healing. In a bid to help bring awareness to this important social issue, and hopefully de-stigmatise the very serious nature of mental health issues, SOS has formed alliances with organisations that support mental health, such as The Mental Health
Club, Lennox.
SOS is super excited to be able to bring this unique singalong experience to our wonderful community. Join in and sing your hearts out to every song. Immerse yourself in music, melody, dance and, ultimately, connection. Not only will you be dazzlingly entertained, you will also be utterly captivated! Release your inhibitions and join the fun…
The first show on 29 December sold out in under 24 hours – get in early for next year’s first event on Saturday, 10 February at 7.30pm at the Bangalow Bowlo.
For four decades The Echo has printed the stories some people loved, some people hated, and some pretended not to read. If you want us to keep telling the truth, the real truth, not the sugar-coated version. We’ll need your support to keep the presses rolling.
