OffChoir
OffChoir is OffKai Expo’s community fan choir! Debuting at OffKai Expo Gen 2, every year we sing a medley of popular VTuber songs from the last year, consisting of new releases and iconic covers alike! This year, our medley has selections from over 50 VTubers, eight agencies, and both corporate and indie VTubers alike!
FAQ
Can I join if I have no choir experience?
Yes! OffChoir is open to all skill levels.
How do I join?
If you want to participate, you’re in! No formal sign-up is required, but there will be a confirmation of participants closer to the convention. Join the OffChoir Discord to stay up to date on the scheduled rehearsals and learn the score!
What if I don't know for sure if I'm coming to OffKai Expo?
Feel free to still learn and sing with us anyway! We’d rather you be prepared just in case ;D
How much of a time commitment is it at the convention?
This year, we will have two one-hour long rehearsals, as well as a sound check before OffKai Live. Rehearsals will take place Friday night at 7:30 PM, and Saturday morning at 9:00 AM! We also ask singers to come to the Main Stage around half an hour before OffKai Live starts to do one last run through before we perform!
How will we rehearse?
Rehearsals will take place in Discord every two weeks leading up to the convention starting April 5th. Unfortunately due to latency issues, we can’t have a ‘real’ rehearsal before the convention. Instead, we’ll break down the score together, talk about practice techniques for tricky sections, discuss the role of each part, and answer questions to make practicing easier!
What if I can't read sheet music?
No worries! Sheet music and audio guides will be provided! If you’d like to learn how to read sheet music, there will be a general meeting to go over the basics! Feel free to ask in Discord if you need any help!
About the Conductor
Evie (AKA eebeegames) is a VTuber and vocal coach. After years of teaching in person, Evie combined her love of VTubing with her career to open Evie’s Music Studio in 2020; the first VTuber centric vocal music studio. Since then, she’s taught over 100 VTubers, corporate and indie alike. In 2024, Evie was able to leave her public school teaching job to pursue running her vocal studio and work on other projects (like this one!) full-time.
Evie earned her Bachelor of Music Education degree in 2021, training in voice, violin, and bass. Prior to entering the VTubing sphere, Evie directed various choirs and orchestras across K-12 grade levels throughout Maryland. Evie started her teaching career in 2017 while working at her college, and was nominated as a Maryland Teacher of Promise in 2021.
Evie is looking forward to OffChoir’s third performance, and hopes to eventually grow the project to include not just vocalists, but instrumentalists as well. Her goal is to have a full choir and orchestra on stage one day.
