Sounds of Summer – Northwest Area Concert (2025)
Aug 2, 2025 @ 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm
Do You Hear What I Hear?
The Houston Tidelanders are a premier a cappella chorus rooted in the heart of Houston, Texas, with a rich legacy spanning over 75 years. We’re known for our vibrant barbershop style—featuring tight harmonies, resonant chords, and shimmering overtones that bring every performance to life.
Under the skilled direction of Patrick MacAlexander, a seasoned barbershop veteran with over two decades of experience in singing, arranging, and directing, the Tidelanders deliver high-energy performances that engage and entertain audiences of all ages.
Our repertoire extends well beyond traditional barbershop. We showcase a diverse mix of Broadway hits, classic rock & roll, patriotic favorites, spiritual selections, contemporary pop, original compositions, and beloved barbershop standards—all performed in our signature harmony-rich style.
