Since 1991 the Plymouth Rockers Performing Senior Chorus of Plymouth, MN, has entertained Twin Cities audiences. They boast a membership of more than 70+ men and women, all 55+ years old, from 18 cities in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. The Plymouth Rockers is a non-profit 501(c3) organization sponsored by the City of Plymouth. They are a premier 4-part harmony singing group that fulfills its mission of bringing music to those who can’t go to concerts by entertaining for nursing homes, assisted living, senior high rises, business groups, church groups and social groups.
About
The Plymouth Rockers sing a variety of music from Golden Oldies, Broadway, Patriotic, Folk and Gospel. We give those who wish to continue that feeling of belonging and performing in a group the opportunity to reconnect with their musical journey, enriching their lives outside of work, family obligations and retirement. It also provides an avenue to get involved in your community while entertaining audiences across the area with great music.
