Rocky Mountain Region 8 of Sweet Adelines International is an eight state organization of women singers dedicated to advancing the art form of barbershop harmony through education, performances and friendship.
Founded in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1945, Sweet Adelines started as a small group of women who loved to sing. Since then, it has evolved into an organization that spans the globe connecting nearly 21,000 singers around the world in song. We’re dedicated to preserving the unique sound of a cappella barbershop harmony, sharing our passion for music and empowering our singers in every area of their lives. We welcome singers from all nationalities and backgrounds to join in the joy of barbershop harmony.
Music includes special arrangements of today's ballads and upbeat songs, popular show tunes, and even jazz.
Members say that singing the powerfully balanced sounds of barbershop harmony provides a rich, rewarding experience.
Diversity, Inclusion and Culture of Belonging:
Region 8 supports - and is committed to - the Guiding Principles of Diversity, Inclusion and Culture of Belonging, as stated by Sweet Adelines International:
Diversity and Inclusion
We celebrate our differences as essential to the rich harmony that unites us. As we recognize barbershop’s African American origins and learn from our exclusionary past toward women of color, we reject discrimination and unwaveringly strive toward greater awareness, openness, and understanding of each other.
Culture of Belonging
We create harmony where every voice matters. We foster a culture that provides a joyful place to share our uniqueness within a global community united in song.
