Who's Who

Our Director

Kat Britt Director of Jersey Harmony Chorus

Kat Britt knew she wanted to sing barbershop when she saw The Buffalo Bills in the movie "The Music Man". She joined Sweet Adelines Intl in June 1996, singing in her first chorus AND her first quartet!

 

Now she sings with Harmony Celebration Chorus, directs Jersey Harmony Chorus, and sings baritone in Holiday Belles Quartet and the award-winning Just 4 (Kicks) Quartet. All of these groups are part of the Sweet Adelines International organization.

 

​In 2012, Kat won Region 15's Novice Director award.  In 2016 she led the chorus to a second place win in the Small Chorus division and became a Harmony 500 Director. At the 2017 competition, under Kat's direction, Jersey Harmony placed second again in the Small Chorus category, and also took home the Most Improved Chorus award.

​​ Member of Note

Kat and Audrey Members of Note_edited.jpg

We are happy to honor Audrey Wells (right) standing with our Director Kat Britt (left), as our 2025 Member of Note.  Audrey learned about Jersey Harmony through her daughter, Robin, shortly after Robin became a member of our chorus.

 

In the short time Audrey has been with us not only has she enhanced our Tenor section with her lovely voice, she has also been eager to help our chorus out in various ways.

 

Soon after she joined, she became an assistant to our Finance Team Leader and has now taken on the position and become a valued member of the Management Team. She also recently accepted the position of Assistant Director under Kat Britt's guidance and is quickly becoming valuable as our vocal warm up leader.

 

It is a pleasure to have both mother and daughter as talented and vibrant members of Jersey Harmony. We are pleased to present Audrey as our well deserved candidate for this year's Member of Note.

 

Congratulations, Audrey!
