WORST. SONG. EVER

Calling all music lovers! And haters.

WORST. SONG. EVER. is a just-for-fun live music 'competition' open to adults at any level of 'talent’: whether you are a musician, a hobbyist, or a hack! If you can carry a tune, strum a few chords, or better…or worse…then this event’s for you.

Start by thinking of songs that make you change the radio station the moment you hear them… Then choose one that you personally believe to be one of the worst songs ever written. Select a well known song—from any decade/any era of music—that was written in earnest (no comedy or novelty songs allowed). Rehearse it in your own style, interpreting it however you like, & practice practice practice! The idea is not to play a song badly, but to play a bad song well. Or weirdly. Whatever.

Then invite your family, friends, & fanclub to come laugh at, with, & near you when you take your best shot at the worst material live on stage! The audience votes for their (least?) favorites & awards the WORST. TROPHIES. EVER. You might score if you make an attempt to look & sound like the original artist, or if you try transforming a bad song through your own unique musicianship into something kind of good, or even if you just sing it like you hate it.

Perform solo or with others/in a band; a cappella or accompanied; (but absolutely no karaoke, no song parodies, & no original compositions). Sign up now by emailing info@wooo.tv: 1-Your name, 2-The city or town in which you live, & 3-The title of the song you will cover. You must inform the producers of your song choice when you sign up, but this information—as well as the overall setlist—is kept secret, so that the show remains an evening of unpleasant surprises for the audience.

WORST. SONG. EVER. is a Barre-original creation, celebrating its lucky number 13th year! Shot out of a cannon & sure to make your head explode, we guarantee that this is the worst thing you will ever see on stage. Don’t suffer #FOMO: Buy your tickets today!
