Gospel Strings & Sing Club
The Gospel and Strings Club will hold its first meeting on Friday, Oct. 21, in Clubhouse 3, Room 9, from 1-3:30 p.m. Afterward, the regularly scheduled meeting will be in Clubhouse 6, Room 2, from 1-3:30 p.m. on Wednesdays, starting on Oct. 26.
Attendees can join club members in selecting a song, playing and singing traditional country gospel, traditional hymns, praises choruses and an occasional classic country song. All levels of string playing and singing are welcome. The playing and singing is meant to feed the soul and provide a mid-week lift. Members will sit in a circle.
Music stands are available and a microphone will be provided to participants choosing to lead the group playing and or singing their selections from the club’s song book, which includes singing lyrics and string playing chords.
Club membership is free. Specific gospel and other songs will be available for purchase to help recover costs of reproducing them, as well as future song updates.
Club members are expected to recognize (applaud) individual performances even if the vocal cords or string playing abilities have slipped a little.
