We are a secular community choir in Wellington who love singing a cappella gospel music

Gale Force Gospel Choir is an inclusive choir in Wellington, New Zealand, that welcomes all singers regardless of previous experience, gender, religion, or cultural background. We sing arrangements of gospel songs primarily collected from the Southern United States by New Zealand song leader Tony Backhouse.

Our first rehearsal for 2026 is on 3 February.

We sing in the hall behind St Andrew's on The Terrace church on Tuesday nights from 6pm to 8pm. We welcome you to join us there.
