The roots of Barbershop music derived from African American history and their traditional improvisational music from the 1800s. The four-part harmony of barbershop music was based on folk songs and hymns performed in four parts.

Although most of us may associate a cappella music with a quartet, complete choirs also sing barbershop. People of all ages and from every ethnicity are also included in barbershop clubs.. Their performances can be heard at local or national championships. The music is often uplifting, spiritual, or simply amusing, and it often includes songs with clear lyrics and easily singable melodies.

Women of all ages and places are united across the country by organizations like the Sweet Adelines, which were established on July 13, 1945, bring together women of all ages and backgrounds. The blending of their voices makes crowds swoon to fun tunes. The women also compete, much like the men's clubs. They tune their voices and rehearse while also performing locally. They rehearse and rehearse.
