The Cordon Bleu Barbershop Quartet.

 
 

Welcome to the website. We are a barbershop quartet based in Bromley, Kent. Chris Garrard sings Lead, John Rayfield (Tenor), John Weeks (Bass) and John Vaughan (Baritone). We started about 10 years ago, and in 2003 were the runners up in the National Barbershop Seniors Quartet contest (so you can guess that three of us are in our seventies!). We were Finalists in the National Silver Stars (performers over age 65).We also featured briefly in a TV advertising campaign for the relaunch of Cadbury's Wispa Chocolate Bar.

We have a good mix of songs in our repertoire, suitable for weddings or funerals, or birthday celebrations, but we do like amusing songs best. See the list below for some of our most popular numbers.

Our repertoire includes-

Bells are Ringing for Me and My Girl
Macnamara's Band
My Wild Irish Rose
You're the Flower of My Heart, Sweet Adeline
I'm Sitting on Top of the World
I'm Still Having Fun
Lullaby in Ragtime
Ragtime Cowboy Joe
I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen
Heart of My Heart, I Love you
Irish Blessing
Sweet Roses of Morne
Shenandoah

Beatles numbers (Yesterday, Something in the Way She Moves, When I'm 64)

And some old barbershop favourites (After Dark, Goodbye, My Coney Island Baby Down our Way, Keep the Whole World Singing, Let's get Together Again, Shine on Me, Sweet and Lovely, Wait 'til the Sun Shines, Nellie, You're as Welcome as the Flowers in May,).

If you are looking for a quartet for South East London or the nearer parts of Kent or Surrey, give us a call. Telephone John Vaughan on 0208-395-4574, or e-mail to jevaughan@blueyonder.co.uk You'll also see us on our Bromley Club website at thekentones.org
