Oli Goodall

Oli has been making music his whole life, starting with piano and cello at a young age. The choir was always enticing though, and as a teen he turned his focus to the voice. Since then, he has been singing, learning and honing his vocal knowledge for almost 15 years.

In that time, he has sung in all sorts of ensembles and environments, from chamber choirs to contemporary a cappella groups, and even the odd operatic solo here and there. But barbershop has always held a special place for Oli, who sang for many years with Capital Chorus and Meantime Chorus in London, as well as in various quartets, most notably Hot Ticket, LABBS 2023 Mixed Quartet Champions.

Academically trained in Linguistics, Oli learned about the voice, its anatomy, mechanisms and acoustics through a scientific lens, attaining an MRes in Speech, Language and Cognition in 2019. He has used this grounding to develop himself as a hobbyist music educator, teaching classes at BABS Harmony College, serving on chorus music teams, and coaching quartets.

In 2023, he made the leap into music education full time with the launch of OG Vocal Studio. Since then, Oli has been teaching singing, coaching as many ensembles as possible, and studying to become an accredited Vocal Health First Aider.
