It was our best ever year performing at the Broadstairs Blues Bash in February. We're booked again for next year's event on 21st February 2027 and really looking forward to that! We also had a great time in Ellington Park at the May Fair. Our repertoire is really strong now and we continue to build our songs. Our next event will be on 12th September at the Ramsgate Festival of Sound. We are taking part in the Busk until Dusk event and you can see us here:

1730. East Kent Arms

Check out the posters below for more info. 

Rehearsals resume on 3rd September. We're always looking for more singers and musicians to join us. We also want to hear from anyone interested in booking our choir. Just come along to rehearsals or contact  us.

What's in a name?

When the Fisk Jubilee Singers were formed in America in 1871, their aim was to bring Spirituals and Gospel music to a wider audience. This is also our aim and so it seems an apposite name for our choir. Originally we were called Thanet Community Gospel Choir; a long name that people frequently got wrong. Also, we want to establish our identity as a performing group. We're very proud to perform Christian songs but we're not a religious group. We also perform plenty of secular music. We're inspired by the roots of Gospel music and the branches.  All of our music has the common aim to be uplifting and inspiring. This is the principle that guides Thanet Jubilee Singers.
