Wild Asheville Community Chorus
Wild Asheville Community Chorus
In 2008, Suzannah and her singing partner, Nathan Morrison, began the Wild Asheville Community Chorus (WACC) as a fun hometown project. It started with twelve friends singing in their living room and has since grown to 100 singers per season. They co-led WACC through 2017, at which point Nathan moved on to other projects and is now a fabulous artisanal sourdough bread baker.
Due to Covid-19 the choir has paused their regular season. Suzannah is still offering one-off online WACC events and singers from around the world are welcome to join us.
