Glee Bayside get together on Wednesday nights at gorgeous Brighton Beach Bowls Club. Glee Bayside is led by the fabulous Natalie Calia – you’ll love Natalie’s joyful and inclusive style as well as her excellent musicianship.

We work in short seasons towards a performance. There are no auditions for Glee Bayside – just a willingness to do a bit of practice! It’s no drama if you miss a week or two – we understand that we all live busy lives and so we stream and record the sessions and give you lots of resources so you can sing at home and catch up.

We love to accept new singers to come and give it go at the beginning of each season.

And we always bring the fun to choir rehearsals – we don’t have tea break, we have wine time!
