Vancouver Choir Outside Voices Covers Fleetwood Mac and Rehearses in the Park
By Kerri Donaldson / December 27, 2024
Singing your favourite Fleetwood Mac song at full blast is usually reserved for those magical car moments when the radio gods bless you and your windows are rolled up tight. But now, thanks to a new community choir, you can belt out those favourites with a crowd. Outside Voices, led by local music maker David Beckingham, is giving Vancouverites a fun, low-pressure way to reconnect through song. (Let’s be honest, karaoke can only satisfy our inner Adele for so long.) “I’ll never forget the first rehearsal,” says Beckingham, a guitarist for Juno-winning indie band Hey Ocean. “Sixty people singing Radiohead while I played guitar—it was magic.”
