The Honeybees is a non-profit community choir established primarily for the purpose of promoting and encouraging a cappella singing – in particular, gospel music – in Australia. We are not a religious choir, but are united in our love of the uplifting and passionate quality of the gospel genre. Our repertoire includes traditional gospel songs, as well as modern gospel-inspired numbers, which draw on related musical styles such as soul, R & B and jazz. The Honeybees came together in 1996 under the direction of acclaimed singer-songwriter Tony Backhouse. In 2003, we welcomed Dynes Austin as Musical Director. Under his leadership, we have expanded our gospel repertoire and embraced many new performance opportunities. We enjoy performing and are involved in approximately 12 gigs each year. Commitment to rehearsals and to performing at gigs is a requirement of membership. We choose to perform – either paid or unpaid – at gigs which have meaning to us and which can signal support for an issue, a cause, or a service.
Over the years, we have performed in many venues at a wide range of events including concerts and special services, weddings and funerals, fundraising events, book launches and theatrical performances. We love to get feedback and comments, so please leave a message in our Guestbook
