Song Circles: Reclaiming the joy of singing together

Before screens and earbuds, people often gathered in living rooms and around tables to share music, not as an audience, but as participants. In many ways, we’ve lost something in the shift from making art together to mostly consuming it.

This month we will have our second monthly Song Circle at UUCSP

A Song Circle is communal singing in its simplest form: we sit in a circle and share songs that are easy to learn and remember, and sing them together, sometimes adding harmonies or layered parts as we go. You do not need to be trained, confident, or even particularly comfortable. You can lead a song, request one, pass, or simply listen until you’re ready. All genres are welcome. You are welcome and invited to bring an instrument!

We also practice a couple norms that help everyone feel safe: this is not a performance space; it’s a shared practice. There is room for all voices.

Song Circle: March 11th 6:30 – 8:30 pm
Snacks and beverages are welcome.

If you’ve been waiting for a low-pressure way to “try your voice,” this is it. Come as you are and let the circle hold the song with you.
