  SOONER SENSATIONS SHOW CHORUS

About Us

Sooner Sensations Show Chorus is an award winning, fun loving, a cappella barbershop chorus. We are proud to be a chapter of Sweet Adelines International and member of Heart of America Region 25. Although we primarily rehearse in southern Oklahoma City, we have members from all over Oklahoma and North Texas. We are always happy to accept new members, both young and mature. We compete annually and love to perform for various events throughout the year. ​​​

Our Leadership

Picture
Interim Director and Choreographer
​Dawn Krones


Dawn has been an active member of Sweet Adelines International for 18 years. Her love of barbershop began alongside her mom by singing and dancing in the Sooner Sensations Show Chorus. As a second generation barbershopper, Dawn's musical family background has given her not only the knowledge, but especially the desire to share her love of song and dance. This desire led her to sing in and choreograph for OK City Chorus, Tulsa Metro Sound Chorus, and Wichita Chorus. She competed with OK City Chorus at the international level and with Wichita Chorus in The Harmony Classic International Competition. Dawn has sung tenor in multiple accomplished quartets, including Couture, the 2018 Region 25 Champion Quartet, who went on to compete at the international level. Currently, she sings with Wildfire! Quartet and is looking forward to competing again soon.


Currently, Dawn is Interim Director for Sooner Sensations Chorus, choreographer for The Vocal Sounds of Oklahoma, the local men's chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society, and visual coach for Perpetual Sound Quartet. She has also previously held several leadership roles in Sooner Sensations Chorus, including choreographer and tenor section leader. Her service to Region 25 includes Communications and YWIH Coordinators and has been involved with multiple area Youth in Harmony workshops as the event organizer, choreographer, and a member of the faculty teaching quartet.


Dawn is newly wed to her barbershop husband, Joe "Beast" Krones, Bass of the 2011 BHS Champion Quartet, Old School. He is a strong support for Dawn and the chorus by providing coaching and private voice lessons. Dawn's children are also musically inclined, and her daughter, Kristina, sings in the chorus and Perpetual Sound Quartet.

Team Leader Jennifer Morris
Jennifer Morris, a.k.a JMO (a proud baritone) has been a Sweet Adeline since 2007. Her first chorus was Spirit
of Oklahoma, a small but mighty chorus. She sang with them a few years, and then joined Sooner Sensations
after Spirit folded. Jennifer also sang with OK City chorus for several years, enjoying her first international
competition with them (Las Vegas 2016). When she's not busy with the chorus, she enjoys cooking, reading,
taking walks, a little bit of crafting, and all things Star Trek. She has been a hairdresser since 2004, and
currently owns her own salon suite called Studio FM. She and her husband and their young son live in Yukon
with a big fluffy cat.

Finance Manager Amy Baker-Watt
Amy is the current Finance Coordinator for Sooner Sensations, the Tenor Section Leader, and Music Librarian, etc. She joined the chorus in 1989 as a college student, when the chorus was still forming which makes her an original Charter Member. Life led her away, but in 2009 the chorus reached out and invited her back for an anniversary concert and she has been dedicated to this wonderful chorus ever since then. Amy is a single mom now, with two wonderful kids who appreciate her love for this art form!

Secretary Harriet Routon
Harriet joined Sooner Sensations October of 1994. She has been a team member on  and off since joining the chorus.  For two years she was financial manager. She is on the membership committee .  She sings lead and also sings tenor when needed.

We are Family

One of the things we as a chorus pride ourselves on is the fellowship of singing with our family. We have multiple mother/daughter and sister duos along with two family trios in the Sooner Sensations.
