Major Oak Chorus Quartets

Oakie Dokie are all members of The Major Oak Chorus based in Nottingham. We first sang together as a quartet at a Movember ritual shave-off at The Worlds End, Lowdham, in November 2013.  We have sung together regularly since in private and at a number of public performances, for example to a party hosted by The Lord Lieutenant of Nottingham at his home, Caunton Hall.

We sing songs from The Major Oak Chorus and MOCtet repertoires, as well as many songs of our own.  We regularly perform at charity events as well as public events and also private functions.

While we are happy to accept payment for our music, which we spend on new music and coaching, we also support worthwhile local charities.

Oakie Dokie are Pete Dowling (Lead) Mike Paterson (Tenor) John Mason (Bass) and Ron Morris (Baritone)

QM Quartet are: Adrian Armstrong - Baritone; Steve Cox - Bass; Trevor Dawson - Lead; Paul Jeffery - Tenor.

QM have vast experience at singing in a variety of venues from contemporary music clubs to concert halls in Nottingham and further afield. They specialise in entertaining at concerts, festivals, both charity events and corporate events and celebrations of any kind.

You may have seen them around the city singing at the Hockley Hustle, the Space at The Contemporary, Wollaton Hall, The Council House, The Maze, Jam Cafe, Sobar or recently on Notts TV.
