Come sing with us, have a little fun and share some wonderful music with others.

Song of the Lakes

SongRise

HerStory: SongRise was conceived on a shuttle to the DC Metro when Sarah Beller and Laura Honeywood started harmonizing to Sweet Honey in the Rock's "Ella's Song" after a Social Justice Open Mic. For a few rocky months they met in the practice rooms of American University every week with a revolving cast of special guest appearances until a core group solidified and rehearsals moved to the Apiary in Columbia Heights. From the moment SongRise was conceived, we knew it had the potential to solidify our individual and collective dreams of merging art with action, song, soul and substance, community and chorus, and many other alliterative amalgamations.

Sorelle San Diego

Soromundi: Lesbian Chorus of Eugene

Soromundi is dedicated to celebrating diversity. Our song selections span generations and cultures, coming from vastly different political and religious perspectives. But when we sing, our songs all make the same statement: "We are here in all our diversity, and we are strong because of it."

Soromundi has come to be known for its political, emotional, and musical power. The gay community has long been aware that our power lies in our numbers. In singing, Soromundi affirms the strength and dignity of the lesbian community in and around Eugene. We affirm, challenge, and strengthen ourselves as well.

We hope that in every audience we can empower people and inspire them to action, even if that action is the simple but powerful choice to be themselves

When Soromundi was founded in Eugene by Karm Hagedorn in the fall of 1989, there were five members. Since then, the choir has flourished. Over the last five years especially, our numbers have steadily climbed, reaching over 75 active members last season.

Souhegan Valley Chorus

Soul Stirrers

The first Soul Stirrers 78 to feature Cooke, "Jesus Gave Me Water," was a major hit, and with his good looks the young singer made an instant impact with female audiences, in the process becoming the gospel circuit's first sex symbol. The group's popularity continued to soar, but as the Soul Stirrers entered their third decade, the daily grind began to wear on its members, and soon Bruster retired; he was replaced by baritone Bob King, who also doubled as a guitarist, becoming their first-ever steady instrumentalist. In 1954, the Soul Stirrers briefly added Julius Cheeks to their roster; after lending his raspy vocals to a recording of "All Right Now," however, contractual obligations forced him to exit almost as quickly as he arrived. In 1956, Cooke finally crossed over to the pop market, and was replaced by ex-Highway QC Johnnie Taylor; while Taylor himself would also enjoy pop success in the years to follow, he failed to command the same devotion as his predecessor. Lineup changes continued regularly in the years to follow, but the Soul Stirrers forged on, with new, younger members keeping the group afloat into the 1990s.
