Rehearsal Venue
Harold Hawthorn Community Centre,
Tuxedo Junction is a 4-part vocal ensemble under the musical direction of Simone Bishop, a WAAPA-trained musician who has been conducting Tuxedo Junction for many years. Simone is musical director for several groups in WA, also teaches music, and brings her extensive musical experience to Tuxedo Junction.
Tuxedo Junction has been singing in Perth for over 30 years, across several genres, such as; jazz, pop, classical, music theatre etc. Currently we are singing music from Queen, The Beatles, David Bowie, Sweeney Todd, The Twilight Saga, Finlandia by Sibelius, Gabriel Faure, and songs from Celtic and Zulu traditions, and of course, many Christmas Songs.
We perform both accompanied and a cappella regularly around Perth, staging our own concerts, performing for private groups, local council events and some wonderful flash mobs.
Tuxedo Junction has a reputation for high quality performances.
We maintain a group limited to about 20 singers, and welcome new members when vacancies arise. Potential new members are invited to attend rehearsals for a trial period, then may be invited to audition.
After some Covid impacts, we are currently recruiting in all voice parts :-) So if you are thinking of joining, now is a great time to do so. Speak to our new-members guide Angela on 0419 246 316, or email us.
We rehearse on Thursday evenings in Carlisle, and the night-owls stay up for a cuppa afterwards.
Lots more information about Tuxedo Junction on our website (https://tuxedojunction.org.au), about joining us to sing, or hiring us for a performance.
