The Bill Joor Show | Barbershop Quartet Showcase in Honolulu, Hawai‘i (2026)

This special showcase brings together talented quartets from Hawai‘i, across the mainland United States, and New Zealand for an evening celebrating the music and community that unite barbershoppers across the Pacific. The show honors the memory of Bill Joor, a cornerstone of Hawai‘i's barbershop community for decades. Bill helped build a lasting musical connection between Hawai‘i and New Zealand through his involvement with the Merry Macs quartet, whose 1979 tour helped introduce barbershop harmony to New Zealand.
