21.01.2022 We're on a mission to turn your singing endorphins into financial assistance for Australian families this holiday season! Since March 2020, the team behind Couch Choir have brought you 6 free, global singalongs to over 15,000 participants (we LOVE to do it, by the way). Now we're hoping to capture some of the love you've sent us, and forward it on to families who need a little extra help at the end of a tough year. We want to raise $50,000 for GIVIT by Christmas, and we're ha...lfway there!!! Thank you to those who have generously donated while participating in our final Couch Choir of 2020. If you've been to a Pub Choir show in the past, sung in a Couch Choir, watched one of our videos and felt your heart soften, OR you just have a few dollars to spare - we'd love you to consider donating to GIVIT! You can find all the information about GIVIT below, and by checking out the interview with Astrid and GIVIT CEO Sarah Tennant here: https://youtu.be/qWkhC2a6geo Thank you for sharing your voice with us in 2020. Thank you for making the world feel a little friendlier Astrid, Waveney, Paris & John (the team behind Couch Choir)

01.01.2022 It’s the final day of Submishmas and we’ve got one heck of a finale for you!! Back in April a very familiar face landed in our Couch Choir submission folder. Australians would instantly recognise Kevin Rudd, but for any of our overseas followers he was twice the PRIME MINISTER OF AUSTRALIA. The power of Couch Choir went straight to our heads. We slid into K. Rudd’s DMs and asked if he would be happy to talk about his Couch Choir experience, and he graciously obliged.... Please enjoy the 12th Day of Submishmas. We hope our celebrations have brought you some smiles, encouragement, and the knowledge that we welcome every voice with open arms. YOU STILL HAVE TIME TO PARTICIPATE (just)! Head to couchchoir.com before midnight (AEST) November 30th and send us your performance. Singing, instrumental anything you like! While you’re there, make a donation to GIVIT and help us reach our fundraising goal. HAPPY SUBMISHMAS and thanks for watching!
