Coastline Show Chorus is an award winning a cappella, barbershop harmony women’s chorus. As members of Sweet Adelines International, Coastline has gained an international reputation for exciting, high-energy performances. Since 2002, CSC has received eight first place regional medals. First place medals awarded in May 2019 qualified the chorus to represent the North Atlantic Region at the (since canceled) October 2020 Sweet Adelines International Competition in Louisville. This would have been Coastline’s ninth appearance on the International stage.
History
The Coastline Show Chorus, formerly the Mount Hope Bay Chorus, was formed in 1995 by three friends who shared a passion for barbershop singing. What began as a small group of 11 women in Warren, RI, has blossomed into a chorus of 30+ members. While most of Coastline’s singers hail from Rhode Island and Central/Southeast Massachusetts, members come from all over the Northeast, from Maine to Connecticut and even Upstate New York!
