Organoke | Mass Sing-A-Long Bangers With A Twist
Everyone loves a big organ.
And the one at St. Giles church in Camberwell is huge.
All the better then to bang out some festive classics for a night of Organoke this Christmas. And yes, Organoke is exactly what it sounds like – a portmanteau of ‘organ karaoke’, in which a classically trained organist quite literally pulls out the stops to provide live accompaniment for a raucous evening of sing-a-long bangers, all backed up by a full band, while people sing, dance, drink, and generally soak up the euphoria.
As always, the evening will be hosted by the inimitable Ida Barr, an old-school Energizer Bunny of an M.C. who shakes off their age and gets the room roaring in unison like you wouldn’t believe. The all-important organ will be jockeyed by maestro Ashley Valentine, who’ll be putting his classical training to good use for such bangers as ‘Fairytale in New York’ and ‘I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day’. And if you’re feeling the tiniest bit timid, just know there is a full bar, too. After running these events for seven years now, it all seems to just flow…
…organically.
NOTE: Organoke takes place at St. Giles church in Camberwell on 12th, 14th & 15th December 2024. Tickets cost £29pp, and are available right HERE.
