“We’re talking six-, seven- and eight-part harmony. We’re talking a cappella harmony. And it’s gloriously uplifting.” – Now Magazine, 2010

about

The Abramson Singers Vancouver, British Columbia

Vancouver’s the Abramson Singers are a throwback to a different time, like a tucked-away pocket of the late '60s or '70s at the height of the singer-songwriter popularity.
