Some Voices: Community Choir
Some Voices is a non-audition contemporary choir, meeting in multiple locations in the UK and abroad - including St Albans! Some Voices is about more than singing together, it is about being part of a supportive community and creating memorable moments together - this term they are focused on 'pride anthems' celebrating self-expression, love, and unity.

16:30
Henry Nurse
As a composer, arranger and MD Henry specialises in the liminal spaces between jazz, musical theatre and classical music. "Luscious, whimsical and colourful are my watchwords. I am an avid storyteller and am every bit as passionate about lyric writing as I am about composition." As a composer, he has worked with Ensemble Isis, the Ora Singers and the Chroma Ensemble. He was a finalist in the Ora singers composer competition, judged by John Rutter and double shortlisted for BBC Young Composer Competition. A first-class music graduate of the University of Oxford, Henry specialised in composition, orchestration and production with Jacques Brel, Steven Sondheim, Michel Legrand, Ray Davies and Francis Poulenc being among his foundational influences.
19.30
Vertigo
Vertigo are three St Albans lads who uniquely fuse Jazz-rock hooks and slice of life storytelling reminiscent of the Kinks. What results is equal parts Jamiroquai and Jake Thackray. From the failed premiership of Theresa May to the romantic delusions of a serial killer and the paintings of Degas, Vertigo bathe stories of the unexpected and lighting sharp lyrical twists in vintage sonorites as sweeping as the American prairie. Vertigo comprises Henry Nurse (vocals, bass and lead songwriter), Brendan Donegan (guitar) and Oliver Nurse (drums), two brothers and a school friend who all share a passion for head turning colourful stage outfits. Expect a high energy and memorable set!.
20:30
Pat & The Butchers
Pat & The Butchers return to St Saviour's for the ultimate Saturday night! Playing the best in upbeat party music from all decades and genres, they are sure to please every audience - and especially those who want to dance!
