The Idea of North is a group of musicians, serious about their music without taking themselves too seriously. Their instrumentation: voice (soprano), voice (alto), voice (tenor) and voice (bass), with some vocal percussion thrown in.

Christmas Album Launch

ARIA award winning contemporary vocal quartet The Idea of North, return to The Basement to launch of their long-awaited Christmas album.

After years of requests and good natured hassling, The Idea of North have finally recorded their favourite Christmas songs, masterfully arranged in their signature, harmony-driven style.

Celebrate the festive season at The Basement with your friends while enjoying a drink or two as this warm and intimate show unfolds.

This concert will mark the return of the group's alto Naomi Crellin who, as much as she loves motherhood, has been itching to get back to "singerhood".

"...an impeccable standard of musicianship..." - The Melbourne Age

"Smooth, sophisticated close-harmony arrangements... A pitch-perfect ensemble. " - The Courier-MailBrisbane

"In terms of quality of ensemble and elegance of arrangements, this group's work is in the same league as that of The Swingle Singers in their heyday. On top of that, they incorporate a wry, deadpan Australian sense of humour that made their performance immensely entertaining." - Sydney Morning Herald
