Press Kit
Pitchface is a community choir made up (almost entirely) of women and non-binary peeps from Melbourne's inner west.
“From the Ramones to Blur via Whitney Houston - no problem at all for these ladies.”
What started as an idea among four friends over a boozy dinner in Footscray has grown to a joyous 'no experience necessary' singing squad of around 100.
They belt songs you wouldn't expect from a choir, have a particular love of late-80s ballads and the dance hits of the 90s, and collectively make a strong case for double-denim to be an acceptable wardrobe choice.

“Pitchface provides a safe space for local women to explore their voices, and discover or fuel a love for singing.
The choristers are able to connect with others, gain new skills, forge valuable friendships and feel a greater sense of belonging.”
