The Blingmasters
Blingmasters is a female Barbershop Chorus based in North Dublin. It was founded in 2018 by Becky Gilbert of Lady Barbalade. The chorus is based on the foundational principles of good singing and fabulous dresses. Blingmasters were 2018 Irish Association of Barbershop Singers Female Chorus Champions, and winners of the trophy for highest performance score at IABS 2019. The chorus currently has around 30 members aged between 17 and 58 and gives opportunities to women to sing and perform who otherwise may not be able to participate due to the demands of young families, busy jobs and busy lives. We want to bring the wonderful, positive mental health benefits of singing and music to as many people as possible. Blingmasters’ aim is to be a force for good in the world, and give our ladies an outlet to have fun, enjoy singing and meet nice people. We are baby-friendly, job-friendly, partner-friendly and with so many new mums in the group, we often have little voices adding their own notes to our rehearsals.
