Do I need to have singing experience/choir background to join
SMU VOIX?
Nope! Everyone is welcomed to come down for auditions and be part of the club! ☺
What kind of songs does VOIX sing?
We cover a wide range of genres from pop music to songs from musicals!
I have a passion for singing, but I have stage fright if asked to perform in front of an audience.
Most of our members do not have experience performing on stage and some of them even come from sports CCAs!
