About Libera
The distinctive sound of Libera
has travelled the world in the
last few years. The group's albums
have topped both mainstream and
classical charts in many countries,
and their recordings hold their
place in top-tens alongside major
artists like Bocelli.
The boys who make up the vocal
band Libera have been described
as “normal” and “ordinary”.
However, as their recordings
and performances demonstrate,
the music they produce is truly
extraordinary. With shimmering,
mystical chords and ecstatic
harmonies, they are unlike any
other group you have ever heard.
These are truly sounds to lift
the soul. Celestial sounds for
a new time.
The singers of Libera who are
aged seven to sixteen attend
many different local schools
in South London and come from
a variety of backgrounds. Although
they are boys and they sing,
they do not think of themselves
as choirboys, but rather as an
alternative kind of boy band.
While the unique sound of Libera
may be impossible to pigeonhole,
its universal appeal has endeared
the group to fans all over the
world, particularly in the US,
the UK, Korea and Japan, where
their CDs top the mainstream
and classical charts and where
they pack concert halls appearing
in their trademark flowing white
robes on imaginatively lit stages.
