After the Overtones supported Matt Goss on the U.K. Version of his Las Vegas show, their debut album, Good Ol’ Fashioned Love, a mixture of ’50s/’60s nostalgia pop classics and self-penned tunes, including first single ’Gambling Man,’ was released in 2010. The Overtones returned with their second album, Higher, in 2012, following it with the.
For musicians and non-musicians alike, ’barbershop singing’ recalls The Music Man’s Ice Cream Quartet and the bright hum of a pitch pipe. Audiences won’t guess that participation in barbershop singing can entail three-hour rehearsals, vowel-matching, breath plans, lyric mapping, and international competition.
Barbershop is a cappella four-part harmony marked by elaborate slides, inverted chords, and attention to overtones. Its lighthearted performance often belies the musicianship needed to ’ring the chords’ — to sing with such accurate pitch and pronunciation that the chords create more notes than voices.
How does that work? Well, the four parts of barbershop are designed to produce overtones. Singing the melody, the lead defines the musical interpretation. Providing a secondary lyrical line, the bass lays the foundation for the overtone series. The tenor sings into the overtones created by the bass, her part resembling a descant. The baritone gets the notes that only a music theory nerd could love: major sevenths, tritones, accidentals.
Though I’ve been singing baritone with Jacksonville Harmony Chorus for eight years, I’ve recently started singing lead in a new quartet called Chordinated. The change has been an incredible musical challenge. As the lead, I designate the dynamics, breaths, and emotions of the music: I am the authority onstage.
As a classical soprano, I’ve been in several performance ensembles — but this is my first time in a quartet. Jeanie (bass) and Danielle (tenor) are also beginners. Our experienced baritone, Debbie, helps plan rehearsals and directs rigorous vowel-matching warmups. A quartet will only ring chords when each singer produces every vowel identically: the guide for pronunciation is the lead’s voice. After routines of sliding scales, chords, and arpeggios, we focus on our music for competition. In April, we’ll compete in a regional contest with other choruses and quartets. Winners of regional competition progress to international competition, and quartets who win international are called ’Queens of Harmony.’ We want to be Queens.

*The Overtones are a UK based vocal harmony group. They were discovered by a Warner Bros. Records’ talent scout while working as decorators in a shop near Oxford Street, singing during their tea break. Their first album, Good Ol’ Fashioned Love, entered the UK Albums Chart at #16 in November 2010. After its re-release in March 2011, it reached #4. More than 500,000 copies of their first album.
Work on contest songs often includes duetting: where two parts rehearse to produce a unified sound. As we duet, we change position — singing cheek-to-cheek, behind one another, or beside each other. Sometimes we sing in ’quartet formation,’ a semicircle with lead and bass in the center. Occasionally we form a tight circle, singing across to one another.
Barbershop demands my classical training in music theory as I navigate through difficult chords and key changes. However, most of the singing technique I apply here does not come from my classical training. Singing lead requires more frontal resonance: sending the tone ’into the mask’ so that it resonates in my cheekbones and forehead. I also use my hard palate when the lead has a ’post’ — a sustained note that grows while the other parts move around it.
Barbershop singing allows me to be more physically expressive. Chordinated has been coached by two Queens who emphasized using our legs and arms to help produce sound. While singing barbershop, I allow my knees and hands to express tension, invitation, anticipation, relief. The physical movement produces a more consistent sound.
Though I’ve only been singing lead since November, I’m discovering an intense love for musical interpretation. My quartet indulges me as I change the keys of our songs until I find the key that best suits our voices. Barbershop singers are notoriously lax about the written score. Our sheet music functions like the loose guidelines for medieval chants: rhythms can be rushed or stretched depending on the lead’s design and the quartet’s abilities. The lead is harmonically situated like the cantus firmus of centuries past, unlike the soprano-centric melodies of most SATB arrangements.
Working toward competition, Chordinated are rehearsing for several hours each week — in addition to our chorus’s three-hour practices. We’ve lined up coaching sessions with chorus directors and Queens from our region. And on the advice of one Queen, we sing our music on lip trills for 10 minutes every day. In this quartet, I’m a novice again, singing in a new place both musically and physically.

The Overtones are a UK based vocal harmony group. They were discovered by a Warner Bros. Records’ talent scout while working as decorators in a shop near Oxford Street, singing during their tea break.[1] Their first album, Good Ol’ Fashioned Love, entered the UK Albums Chart at #16 in November 2010. After its re-release in March 2011, it reached #4. More than 500,000 copies of their first album have been sold.History[edit]
The members were originally in a band called DYYCE, which then reformed as Lexi Joe, which formed the basis of The Overtones. With four members originally – Mark Franks, Mike Crawshaw, Darren Everest and Timmy Matley – the band had been performing for several years. The four all shared an interest in the doo-wop genre of the 1950s mixed with R&B and modern pop music. Their voices bear a strong resemblance to a 1980s’ doo-wop boyband, 14 Karat Soul. After auditioning on The X Factor in 2009, as Lexi Joe, they were rejected from the final 24. Later, they met Lockie Chapman, discovered similar tastes in music and reformed themselves as a five-piece band, under the name of The Overtones. Everest then had the idea of starting a painting and decorating company so that the five could practice together while working. It was while painting a shop near Oxford Street in London that the band was discovered by a talent scout, while singing ’The Longest Time’. They later signed a 5-album deal with Warner Bros. Records.[2]
The first album by The Overtones has a number of original tracks written by the band, including their first single ’Gambling Man’, the title track ’Good Ol’ Fashioned Love’ and ’Carolyn’. In 2010, they made a number of high-profile public appearances, supporting Peter Andre on tour,[2] and performing at Stockport’s Christmas lights switch-on[3] and at the Abbey Park fireworks display in Leicester.[4] They have made a number of television appearances, including on This Morning.[5]

Later in 2016, The Overtones announced on their Facebook page that they would be touring from November to December, with their ’Christmas with The Overtones Tour’. On 21 November 2016, Matley announced via Twitter that he would not be joining the rest of the band on tour, having been diagnosed with skin cancer in September 2016.[10] As he progressed through his treatment, Matley returned for the band’s touring commitments in 2017 and the band began recording its sixth studio album.
Matley died on 9 April 2018 from multiple traumatic injuries sustained in a fall from a balcony.[11] The band cancelled most of its touring commitments in order to grieve, before returning to the studio to complete the album as a four-piece. The album, The Overtones, was released on 19 October 2018 on the band’s own label GamblingMan Records, including one track with Matley’s previously recorded vocals.

The members were originally in a band called DYYCE, which then reformed as Lexi Joe, which formed the basis of The Overtones. With four members originally – Mark Franks, Mike Crawshaw, Darren Everest and Timmy Matley – the band had been performing for several years. The four all shared an interest in the doo-wop genre of the 1950s mixed with R&B and modern pop music. Their voices bear a strong resemblance to a 1980s’ doo-wop boyband, 14 Karat Soul. After auditioning on The X Factor in 2009, as Lexi Joe, they were rejected from the final 24. Later, they met Lockie Chapman, discovered similar tastes in music and reformed themselves as a five-piece band, under the name of The Overtones. Everest then had the idea of starting a painting and decorating company so that the five could practice together while working. It was while painting a shop near Oxford Street in London that the band was discovered by a talent scout, while singing ’The Longest Time’. They later signed a 5-album deal with Warner Bros. Records.[2]
