Here's a little film of a breezy New Year's Day featuring the one-off, wild and wonderful Beccy Owen's Pop Up Choir: 'Sing At Some Swimmers!'
One January 1st, 2017, a group of relative strangers from across the North East, with no experience of singing together, bravely answered the call on social media to come together, briefly rehearse some joyful, maritime-themes songs - we had about 1/2 an hour to run through ten songs - and then head down to the beach to serenade the annual Whitley Bay New Year's Day Dippers. Respect to them: it was bloomin' cold!
Thanks to everyone who came to sing, to watch, and to those who helped out on the day to make it possible. And thanks to Jason Thompson for this lovely film.
