Come “let your heart all out” at this special Tragically Hip community singing workshop with members of Kingston’s very own Road Apples! All voices, ages and levels are welcome!

Each month in 2026, Kingston Pop Choir is bringing together a room full of people to learn and sing a song – no auditions, no experience required, no long‑term commitment. Each session features a local musical artist who leads the group in an arrangement of an original song or a beloved cover. These are one‑day choirs: playful, welcoming gatherings where folks come together to sing, connect, and create something bigger than themselves.

This month, we’re welcoming Mike Compeau and Rob Lord as our special guests. They are two founding members of Road Apples, Canada’s original and premier tribute to The Tragically Hip. Since forming the band in Kingston in 1992, Mike and Rob have helped lead Road Apples through four decades of performances at theatres, festivals, and concert venues across Canada, earning a reputation for capturing the spirit and sound of The Hip’s legendary catalogue. They will be teaching us TWO songs by The Hip, including Ahead By A Century.

Don’t worry about preparing in advance. We’ll guide you through the process step by step. Lyric sheets will be provided. PWYC options available. No one turned away for lack of funds!
