The History of Capital City Sound
2025 Region 13 3rd Place Mid-size Chorus
Empowering and uplifting female singers in our community through education and performance of a cappella music, while promoting a culture of belonging.
We believe in filling hearts with joy and friendship singing women’s a cappella 4-part harmony.
Capital City Sound hosts 2 big events each year - Our Annual Holiday Show Fundraiser AND The Barbershop Music Apprecitation Concert, a combined show with all the barbershoppers in the valley. We are a competitive chorus and compete each spring in the Sweet Adelines International North by Northwest Region 13 Competition.
Check our events page for upcoming performance dates.
Want to be a part of the action? We invite all females to join our "Holiday Chorus"! Rehearse with us and sing on our Holiday Show and our Assisted Living caroling day. Holiday Chorus rehearsals start on September 18, 2025.
2024 Region 13 Novice Director, Malauna Gibby.
Malauna (ma-LAW-na) has been a member of Sweet Adelines, singing tenor, since 2009. That first year, she went to the International Chorus Competition with Mountain Jubilee Chorus in Nashville and came home with a 10th place chorus medal. She joined Syringa Sound Chorus in 2010 which merged to form Capital City Sound Chorus in 2013. She has served as tenor section leader (2011-2024), Finance Coordinator (2021-2022) and most recently as assistant director (2022-2024).
Malauna completed the Sweet Adelines International Director Certification Program in May of 2025 and was presented with her Certified Director Certificate and pin at the Region 13 Competition and Convention. After directing the chorus to a score of 502 in that contest, she is now a Harmony 500 director! We are thrilled to have her directing Capital City Sound!
We rehearse Thursdays, from 7:00-9:30 pm. Guests are welcome at all rehearsals. Come and visit us!

"Sweet Adelines keeps me breathing, singing, learning and loving. I look forward to every rehearsal and performance that I participate in. I get to stand beside my loved ones and share my joy with them and the world. What could be better than that?!"
"I was first attracted to Capital City Sound because I love to perform and I love a cappella harmonies. The friendships I've made over the years and the deep sense of belonging and purpose have had a profound impact on my life. Capital City Sound is home."
"It’s the joy of making and sharing beautiful music together with our Treasure Valley community. Our chorus has an inviting, warm and friendly vibe, and is more like a special sisterhood."
