Although this vocal quartet was only formed in 2000, Alan, Brian, Chris and Roger have been singing with the Thames Valley Chorus (visit their website » ) for a number of years, and have also been members of other singing quartets along the way. They sang with the Chorus at Anaheim U.S.A. in ’99 when they represented the British Association of Barbershop Singers (visit their website » ), and the United Kingdom, at this International Convention.
They were participants with the Chorus that was awarded gold at the Festival of Christmas Music in Prague in 2005, and also appeared on the Ant & Dec Christmas Eve TV show backing Robbie Williams when he performed a comedy version of “White Christmas”.
The formation of Rockaholix was a coming together of like minds, to reproduce the great rock and roll classics of the 50’s and 60’s in the a cappella style, no mean feat when you consider that almost every song from those times contained a very prominent guitar and percussion element in the middle of the song.
All of the quartet members have made contributions to the song arrangements, and have enjoyed each step of the considerable amount of time - and wine - it takes to bring the songs from an idea to the fully finished article.
The quartet has proved very popular with their special adaptations of those good old songs that everybody knows. To hear a selection of them, click here. You can also read our full repertoire of Rock, Pop and Barbershop songshere.
