LIGHT ON 💛 the sun is shining, temps are rising, what a perfect way to sing our way into summer. Love us some - thank you for singing with us last month!!!! Can’t wait to do it again on Tuesday
*tickets for June are sold out*

What’s The Big Sing? It’s the Maritime’s greatest group singing lesson! Just picture a Nova Scotia kitchen party, with 250 friends, at a bar, learning one of the best pop tunes of our time, in perfected three-part harmony. We’re not joking. It’s awesome................

All SUMMER long, catch us the second Tuesday of the month at The Basement of the Shoe on Argyle Street. In the heart of Halifax, in the heart of the action – come sing your heart out with us. Our pro tip? Drop by early for a drink and a bite from our friends upstairs at The Economy Shoe Shop. Jack recommends the donair *chef’s kiss*

No musical skills required. You show up, lyrics in one hand and a drink in the other, and we do the rest. We’ll start by learning the melody, and we’ll work towards a final video performance by the end of the night. Co-taught by Rachael Delano, Caitlin Bowers, and Jack Bennet. Weezer will not be in attendance but we do hear they are coming to town later in the month..... maybe someone can put a good word in for us?
