Leather & Lace

Leather ‘n Lace is the first mixed Barbershop Quartet in Manitoba. They have enjoyed a unique resonance of harmony and of friendship for the past two years.

This talented foursome consists of seasoned members who have been performing in various quartets for many years.

A performance from Leather ‘n Lace can bring some toe-tapping Gospel, some Doo-Wop, Golden Oldies and seasonal songs as well as some novelty.

Sherrie Bredesen sings LEAD,  her husband Larry Bredesen provides the deep BASS sound, Karen Jantzen sings a melodic TENOR and Larry Hunter sings that ever-fascinating BARITONE.

Larry Hunter is a co-director of the River City Sound Chorus, an excellent group of mixed A Cappella Barbershop singers. River City Sound is entering their 75th year of being a chapter in the Barbershop Harmony Society and Leather ‘n Lace is thrilled to be celebrating that with this very talented group of people.
