A grassroots choir is a group of like-minded people who get together in a casual setting to sing simple arrangements of popular music and singer-songwriter material. Toronto’s Choir!Choir!Choir!, founded in February 2011 by Nobu Adilman and Daveed Goldman, is a shining example.
One inspiration for the grassroots choir movement is PS22, the children’s choir at Public School 22 in Staten Island, New York, directed by Gregg Breinberg. He started blogging about PS22 in 2006 and since then, their videos have been viewed online over 39 million times.
