Cocktail Hour are Bianca (tenor), Ainslie (lead), Zana (bass) and Jenni (baritone): all members and musical leaders in Hobart Harmony Chorus. The quartet was established in July 2020 and has gone on to become a Registered Quartet with both Sweet Adelines International (SAI) and Barbershop Harmony Australia (BHA). Cocktail Hour has competed at a national level with both organisations. In November 2022 they won the first place women's quartet award in BHA's national contest in Hobart, and have placed in the top five at the Sweet Adelines Australia national contest since 2022. They enjoy singing at local events here in Hobart and are regular performers with the Festival of Voices. Most recently, as part of the 2024 Festival, they hosted and sang in the “Dream a Little Dream” concert at St David’s Cathedral and appeared as “pop ups” at Hadley’s Hotel and Mayfield Estate Winery.
Cocktail Hour sing a mix of classic barbershop and contemporary a cappella, with a real passion for jazz!
