About Us

Under the direction of Clay Hine since 2005, Atlanta Vocal Project is an award winning Atlanta metro men's a cappella chorus of the Barbershop Harmony Society. Our vision is to enrich lives in every generation in our surrounding communities with performances, music education, school system programs, and community activities through the lifelong benefits of a cappella harmony singing. In BHS competition, the chorus has finished in the top 10 internationally multiple times, and has won our district contest seven times - every time we've competed.

We love singing anywhere for anyone and treasure the rich fellowship afforded by barbershop singing. We're always open to new singers and new performance requests. Visit one of our weekly open rehearsals (Thursdays at 7PM), or contact us for more info and help us in our ongoing mission of spreading harmony. See our Join Us page to learn more!

If you're looking to hire musical entertainment for your organization or event, we can provide music for nearly any occasion, from 4-singer quartets to a full chorus of over 40 members, certain to make it a memorable day with professional musicianship.


What's New With AVP:

The last two years have been quite remarkable for the chorus. In June 2024, AVP traveled to perform in Normandy, France in honor of the 80th anniversary of D-Day as part of the official parade and commemorations. It was an experience of a lifetime as we toured historic locations including Paris, Normandy, and Brittany and sang for thousands of event guests as well as dignataries from around the world. Check out this emotional tribute to fallen soldiers we performed on Utah Beach here. And after our European travels, we returned to the States to reprise our collaboration with Tampa's Heralds of Harmony as we competed again at BHS International and brought home silver medals as the 2nd place chorus in the world!

In 2025, we celebrated AVP's 20th anniversary year in style with a special performance gala that raised enough financial support to secure our mission's future for many more years to come. We also produced a spooky music video released on Halloween as a fun treat for our fans. Throughout 2024 and 2025, we also gained a large number of new members through targeted recruitment and open audition events. Add to that Singing Valentines, fantastically festive Christmas shows, and numerous community performances, and it's been quite an awesome time to be part of the Project.


Chapter Info:

Atlanta Vocal Project was formed in 2005 as the Atlanta Metro Chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society, a Georgia 501(c)(3) Corporation. We sing four part a cappella harmony, mainly in the style of the close harmony sung by barbershop quartets with songs across many genres. Comprised of men ranging in ages from high school to retirees and coming from all backgrounds, we welcome any who have a love of singing and who take pride in performing.

The chapter has adopted an enthusiastic program that includes music education, participation in Society competitions, youth outreach, and community service. Along with an internal focus on a healthy artistic growth, we are also focused on making a positive impact within our community and partaking in the many benefits the Society has to offer.

We provide a meaningful music program with music team leadership that makes sure we are all working toward the same goal of musical excellence. Small group and even one-on-one vocal lessons by our director and music team help each member become more comfortable in singing and improve the ensemble sound. 

Over the years, Atlanta Vocal Project has entertained appreciative audiences at many venues local and abroad. We have been asked to sing for state and national dignitaries at the Governor's Mansion, Braves games, corporate luncheons, school functions, birthday parties, Disney World, the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, and everything in between. The chorus has also performed and competed across the US, Canada, and France.

The future of AVP is bright, continuing the chapter's proud tradition of pursuing musical excellence and continuous improvement, all while keeping the Society's spirit of Brotherhood, Family, and Harmony alive and thriving!
