Love singing? Love the LGBTQ+ community? Need a break from the usual 9 to 5? Come sing with Out Loud Chorus - we'd love to have you join us
We are an LGBTQ+ chorus in Washtenaw County. We produce fun, quality main stage concerts twice a year, and perform at community events year-round. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, and straight allies – all are welcome!
No music background? No problem! All levels of musical experience are welcome! We are non-auditioned. That means all you need to do is be able to match pitch. We rehearse every Monday night, 7-9:30pm, September through May in Ann Arbor. We're a great group to sing with!
We hope you will join us! Our next new member night will be Monday, September 12, 2022, starting at 7pm, at Trinity Lutheran Church, 1400 W Stadium Blvd, Ann Arbor, MI (less than a mile west of Michigan Stadium). All guests and chorus members must be fully vaccinated and masked throughout every rehearsal. Fully vaccinated is defined as two vaccines (Pfizer or Moderna) or one shot (J&J), plus a booster shot. Bring your vaccination card with the original and booster dates and your photo ID.
Check us out with no obligation to join. Meet the chorus and our artistic director, Saleel Menon. See how we work and determine if Out Loud Chorus is right for you. Meet some wonderful people and enjoy yourself!

We have members of all different singing and musical abilities. Our only requirement to sing with the choir is that you are able to match pitch. We have members who don't read music, members with college degrees in music, members who have never sung with a choir before and members who have sung with professional touring choirs, and probably everything else in between. We are a non-auditioned choir. You will be asked to sing a little for our director so we can help decide which section you will sing in. If you are under 18, we will provide a consent form needing to be signed your parent or legal guardian.
Out Loud Chorus does have attendance and dues policies that we will be happy to explain when you visit us. Even if you think you can't afford it, please come and try us out. We have sponsorships available. No one will be turned away for the inability to pay choir dues. There are also roles available for non-singing members! If you don't like to sing, but you love the Out Loud Chorus, you can play an integral part! We often need the help of choreographers, dancers and musicians. We also often need people to help with producing the concerts, preparing the reception, helping with fundraisers and marketing and other similar tasks.
