The Spooky Men’s Chorale is a magnificent, many-headed beast that has revolutionised the world of men’s singing. Bypassing well trodden avenues, they carve out new territories of mighty sounds, exquisite tenderness, and charming stupidity to both celebrate masculinity and mock it.
Formed in Australia in 2001, the Spooks have become rock-solid festival and theatre favourites in Australia, UK and Europe, with seven albums and 900 gigs under their belts.
The show evokes musical worlds far beyond that suggested by their unassuming, casually hatted, black-clad appearance. They are just a bunch of blokes, but where they take you will blow your mind.

A unique blend of powerful, a cappella male harmonies with quirky, often hilarious, commentary and surprisingly tender moments, creating “beautifully sung anarchy” that’s both moving and funny, a true antidote to modern anxieties with their blend of Georgian songs, original tunes, and pop covers. They are described as an unpredictable, charmingly stupid, yet musically brilliant ensemble, offering “spookily good” performances that range from profound to silly, leaving audiences delighted and often on their feet

In similar vein, the turbulence in Europe is evoked in a beautiful interpretation of a Ukrainian patriotic folksong.

The Spooky Men always leave the audience surprised – and wanting more. And what could be more surprising than a brilliant ‘Spooky-fication’ of Bohemian Rhapsody, and a glaringly bright but not quite so well-fitting tribute to Freddy Mercury’s white singlets!

The Spooky Men’s Chorale is everything you’d hope an Aussie male a cappella group would be! Irreverent, audacious, satirical, funny – and at the same time whimsical, tender, sincere and harmonious.

If perchance they are appearing somewhere near you, don’t miss them. They are really something special.

They’re outstanding and great fun.

“It takes a rare skill to be very silly, thoughtful, and sing in perfect harmony, but the Spooky Men’s Chorale manage to achieve just that.” – The Guardian

Don’t be fooled by their unassuming appearance, they’re not just a bunch of blokes in casual hats and black clothes. Once they start singing, they’ll transport you to musical worlds you never knew existed – stand back and “enjoy the beautifully sung anarchy” – Glasglow Herald.

This is choral music reimagined—funny, moving, and completely unforgettable.
