Quorum
2022 BHS International Gold Medal Champions
Quorum is a new and exciting four part a cappella ensemble. Though their repertoire is primarily in the barbershop style, their collective musical backgrounds in pop a cappella, jazz, theatre, and opera combine to give audiences a unique and exciting musical experience.
Spanning from 3 different states, people would consider Quorum a “long-distance” quartet and yet the four of us have been connected in different ways for many years. Quorum is the 2015 Johnny Appleseed District Quartet Champions and current 3rd Place International Bronze Medalists of the Barbershop Harmony Society. With the number of years we each have dedicated to our own personal Barbershop journeys, Quorum couldn’t be more excited to share our love for this wonderful craft and hope one day we can bring this joy of harmony to all corners of the globe.
Quorum is the 2022 BHS International gold medal champions! Members include Nathan Johnston-Baritone, Chris Vaughn-Lead, Gary Lewis-Bass and Puck Ross-Tenor.
