Oakie Dokie are members of The MOCtet, and 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 some specials of our own. We had a solo spot at the Major Oak Chorus show in November 2016, and entered the national quartet competition in 2016

While we are happy to accept payment for our music, which we spend on new music and coaching, we also support worthwhile local charities by performing without charge.

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