Hamilton Caledonian Bowling Club Male Voice Choir

Conductor: Christopher Barr
Accompanist: John Taylor

Hamilton Caledonian Bowling Club Male Voice Choir was founded in 1946 by a group of bowlers in Hamilton, South Lanarkshire, who enjoyed gathering for impromptu sing-alongs that soon blossomed into a formal choir. Over its long history, the choir has become one of Scotland’s well-known male voice choirs, welcoming members of all singing abilities and performing a wide range of music in concerts and community events. The choir proudly promotes male voice singing throughout Lanarkshire and beyond, sharing the rich tradition of choral harmony it has built over decades. In a major milestone for the group, they have just returned from performing at the London Welsh Festival of Male Choirs at London’s Royal Albert Hall, a prestigious festival that brings together male choirs from across the UK and the world,, marking an exciting international performance opportunity on one of the UK’s most iconic stages.
