Olly Balcombe has been the Music Director (MD) of Sing Out Bristol since May 2025, taking over the role from our previous MD, Orgena Rose.
Olly Balcombe studied Music at Manchester University, specialising in jazz piano and vocals, as well as composition. He has been the faculty lead for Music at a local secondary school and college for the past decade. He has worked as a jazz performer as well as in musical theatre and with various youth & choral orchestras.

Our previous Music Directors, Orgena Rose and Rónán de Búrca, had a profound impact on the sound and culture of Sing Out Bristol. We would not be the choir we are today without them.
