25.01.2022 Follow the call of the disco ball!! Tickets are now live to the October edition of Brisbane funkiest community sing-along!! Be quick, dont miss out! https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/120953807093

23.01.2022 We have something special to share with you. We're missing you all but constantly have you in our thoughts and await the day we can share in song together, as a community. Love and miss you all

23.01.2022 You've probably heard by now that venues in Australia are shut from noon today, and I want to give a massive SHOUT OUT to @CanYouKeepASecret? and Emily Jane for all the amazing commitment and support they've given us over this first and a bit year/s to help build the FSGC community and provide a safe space for us to sing joyfully freely together.. They will also need our support during this difficult time, and I'm sure we can get *creative* with that. But as of right now, ...PLEASE do your absolute utmost to be safe in public if you HAVE to be there, so that we can again come together in future months and celebrate our resilience in song and dance. Please join and both read and share acts of kindness through this group to help others get through this challenging time & help balance our negative feeds. Please invite others as well, and PLEASE follow ALL possible instructions in being 100% safe if you absolutely have to go out in public (& in bringing supplies into your home), so we can #flattenthecurve and protect our health system. Love and virtual hugs, the Funk Soul Glee Club team! https://www.facebook.com/groups/515507852491119/ See more

23.01.2022 Whew, it's getting hot in here now with Martha Reeves and the Vandellas "Heatwave" in chorus

22.01.2022 Our second song for our first night back - lovingly inspired by our favourite bar and hosting venue, Can You Keep A Secret? Vintage Bar and Boutique in Woolloongabba, with our words of love moulded to fit the tune of Aretha Franklin's 'The House that Jack Built'. HUGE thanks to superstar @Bernard Houston on keys for rocking the bar's *freshly-tuned* piano to accompany our excitable #FSGC family for our first month back!

22.01.2022 Hope our FSGC family are all staying healthy and safe during this challenging time. Here's a little giggle to help balance out some of the intensity

22.01.2022 Well, actually, our dancy pants might have to stay in the drawer just a little longer...but WE CAN SING, darlings!!! Something real good has got a hold on us, and we cant wait to be together again in The Bar that LOVE Built. Please dont forget to book your spot with the bar, its going to be a real special one. https://facebook.com/events/s/funk-soul-glee-club-is-back/1250944691923807/?ti=icl

22.01.2022 MISS YOU MIKEY It is with a touch of sadness, but mostly love and joy that next month we will farewell one of our most beloved family members.

Come and send him off in a manner befitting an eternal giver of good vibes and smiles. https://fb.me/e/WJaUictE

06.01.2022 We've all been busy with this new way of life and aren't ready to bring our funky monthly meeting into a virtual medium. However, we are ready and able to carry on with another FSGC tradition. It started as a cheeky boost of courage and carried on as a way to settle our nerves and bond together as we embarked on our monthly funktabulous community choir. That's right, the humble tequila shot was always there to launch us into each song. So raise one with us this Wednesday at 7:00 as we dream of the day we will again unite in song.

05.01.2022 WEDNESDAY NIGHT! It’s time to sing together again! Two wonderful songs, a couple of birthdays, and our last FSGC for 2020 - Can you believe it? ... We can’t wait to fill the bar that love built with a whole lot more love. $10 on the door. See you there! https://fb.me/e/WJaUictE

04.01.2022 Having so much fun, feeling the love
