Welcome to AJoy, more formally known as the a cappella joy chorus, the 2013 Silver medalists for North Pacific SAI Region #13.

We are women who love to sing well and have fun at the same time! We range in age from 15 to 70-something and we come from all walks of life, but we share the same love of music and dedication to excellence. We are always on the lookout for new members, so if you love to sing, and are willing to work hard, please check us out. You'll love us - and our sound!

AJoy belongs to Sweet Adelines International (SAI), an organization of 30,000 women barbershop singers world-wide. The chorus is based in Kirkland, Washington and is a Chapter of the North Pacific SAI Region #13 which includes Washington, Alaska, western Idaho and the northwest corner of Montana. Originally founded as the Lakeside Chorus in 1958, we have a proud tradition of musical excellence, education, and fun!

We love to share our music with audiences, and we perform frequently throughout the year at venues ranging from retirement homes to the regional competition stage. We've even performed in a paddock at Bridle Trails State Park! If you'd like to hire us to sing for you, please Contact Us
