In the fall of 2000, four friends from Verdugo Hills Chorus
got together to form Bristol Fashion quartet. Their compact
blend of voices is due in no small part to their love of harmony
and their dedication to the little things that make up a quality
quartet. Finding four members who are all five feet tall has
finally paid off...Bristol Fashion experiences "surround
sound!" They are available to perform a variety of music
for all types of occasions.

harmonize with one and all. |

Rich Loitz, lead, joined Sweet Adelines in 1974, when
she was a member of the Teacher Corps in El Paso, Texas. Since
returning home to Los Angeles in 1979, she has been a member
of Verdugo Hills Chorus where she serves on the Music Staff.

Nancy
Branam, baritone, joined San Fernando Valley Chapter in
1975 and has been an extremely involved member of Verdugo Hills
Chorus since 1980, holding practically every leadership position.
She and husband Ken run a theatrical rigging business, which
enabled them to tour with Barry Manilow, Michael Jackson and
Julio Iglesias. She and Ken love to spoil their 11 grandchildren
(eight of whom are boys!). They live with a very demanding calico
cat who is banished to the bedroom during quartet rehearsals
due to super-friendly feline advances!

Carol
Stromsoe, bass, has been a Sweet Adeline since 1982, first
with the Arcadia-Foothill Cities Chorus and currently a member
of Verdugo Hills Chorus. She's a converted bari and loves those
low notes. Carol has found that working in a mid-sized CPA firm
has some drawbacks, especially during tax season, but where
there's a will to sing - there's a way. She is married to Gil,
a CPA, and is the mother of two grown children. |
