Our Mission

The Indianhead Chorus is a fraternity of men drawn together by a love of singing four-part, close acappella harmony music known as barbershop. We are committed to:

• Improving the vocal and visual level of performance
• Growing the chapter
• Sharing our music with an ever-growing audience.

The Indianhead Barbershop Chorus has 35-40 active members on the roster. These men come from all over Burnett and Polk Counties in Northwest Wisconsin Some live in St. Croix and Barron Counties, and a few of our members come across the bridge from Minnesota. Our members come from many backgrounds - postmen, salesmen, pilots, students, farmers, truckers, teachers... all drawn together by music and fellowship.

We've been ringing chords for more than fifty years. Chorus leadership, including the music directorship are all home-grown. Loren Nelson, our Director Emeritus, was a driving force in the early years, when we first received our charter from S.P.E.B.S.Q.S.A., the Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barbershop Quartet Singing in America. In the picture to the right, he directs the chorus in a rendition of "Keep the Whole World Singing" at the 2010 Harvest of Harmony, our 52nd annual show.
