We are delighted to be sharing our new music video with you. Recorded at Jet Studio, “The Wall in My Head” is a first glimpse of a new album from Sing Out Brussels!

Our Various Voices Rising show brought together on stage three European LGBTQI+ choirs: Voces Gaudii (Poland), DynamiQ Voices (Utrecht) and of course Sing Out Brussels! The show was organised as a prelude to the Various Voices European LGBTQI+ Choir Festival that we are organising in 2026.

With the artist Biche de Ville, our choir gave a concert at an evening to raise awareness of LGBTQI+ rights organised by the municipality of Woluwé-Saint-Pierre. The evening rounded off our Pride Week concert marathon.

Our choir took part in Brussels Pride on May 18, 2024. Singing, of course! In the parade, on the main stage and also at the Grands Carmes as part of Pride Week.

With just a few weeks to go before the elections, 18 EU Member States have pledged to pursue policies designed to strengthen the rights of the LGBTQI+ community. Our choir sang at the signing of this pledge.

To mark Lesbian Visibility Day, Sing Out Brussels! organized a pop-up concert at the Brussels Bourse to honor the members of our choir who identify as lesbians.

Sing Out Brussels! returned to the Kaleo d’Hastière gîte for another workshop weekend. On the menu: learning new songs, delicious meals, a walk in the forest, time to discuss our projects and a line-dancing lesson!

In August 2024, our choir will take part in the Hand in Hand festival of LGBTQI+ choirs from the UK and Ireland. This biennial event will also be an opportunity to promote the Various Voices festival that we are organising in 2026 in Brussels.

It’s become a Christmas tradition for our choir. We sing a few songs during the Winter Vox festival organised as part of the Winter Wonders in Brussels.

During November, our choir welcomed 15 new faces who made it through the audition process. Each week, we organised integration activities while learning a new repertoire.

The singers spent two days at the Jet Studio in Koekelberg to record part of the repertoire for the “School’s out” show. The album, due for release at the end of the year, will feature 13 songs, recorded both live and in the studio.

This weekend was unique, not only because of our special guest but also because we dedicated more time to building our community.

After our sold-out show in June, the next step of our School’s Out project is to professionally record our songs this October, but we need your help to make it happen!

The members of Sing Out Brussels! met at a general meeting on 20 September and elected a new team to lead the non-profit association. The Board is younger, more diverse and full of energy to develop new projects.

Sing Out Brussels! resumed its activities at the beginning of September. The first two rehearsals were devoted to reconnecting on a human and musical level after a two-month break.

A team from Vews followed our choir behind the scenes as it prepared for the “School’s out” show in June 2023.

From 14 to 18 June 2023, Sing Out Brussels! took part in the European LGBTQI+ Choir Festival Various Voices in Bologna (Italy). Our choir will host this event in Brussels in 2026.

On 10 June 2023, Sing Out Brussels! presented its new show, a mix of songs and testimonials about our LGBTQI+ experiences in schools. A call for more inclusive schools that touched the audience.

Busy agenda for our choir during Pride week. A week full of firsts (concert on the Grand-Place of Brussels and on the main stage of Pride). Many strong emotions shared with our public!
