an unforgettable repertoire, they are ready
to sing at the drop of a hat. Bonus Track

Joan Clare (J.C.) Ford,
our fearless Lead(er), joined Sweet Adelines
in 1986 where she sang in the Five Valley
Chorus, Sleeping Giant Chorus, and the Montana
Sapphire Chorus before moving to Denver
and joining the award winning Skyline Chorus
in 1996. You may remember her in a previous
long time quartet, Crosstown Friends and
Hot Note, both of which also included bass
Vickie Fitches. JC is a lead section specialist
in Skyline and also serves on the management
team. She and her husband, Gregg, have 3
grown kids, one 5-yr old grandson, Donovan
and brand new granddaughter Kylie.
Bass, Vickie Fitches, began
her barbershop singing in the Jefferson
Hills Chorus in 1982 and has been a member
of Skyline for the past 23 years. She has
also sung lead and baritone in past quartets,
and has taken novice in three parts. She
is also a bass section leader in Skyline.
Vickie works for Great West Healthcare as
a Credentialing Specialist. She and her
husband, Ken, have 4 children (one of which
is the tenor, Crystal) and 5 beautiful grandchildren.
Baritone, Lindsey Graham,
joined Skyline in 1994 after a 10 year absence
from Sweet Adelines. She sang bass in her
first chorus, the Smokey Hill Chorus from
1979-1984 and both lead and bari in previous
quartets. Her background is in country music,
gospel and bluegrass...but her personality
profile is definitely "baritone".
She also has 5 dogs, 3 of which are show
dogs and have won many awards of their own.
Lindsey runs a business from home with her
husband Don and they also have a new granddaughter,
Megan.
Tenor, Crystal Fitches is
Vickie's daughter and youngest member of
the quartet. She was 17 when she joined
Skyline and now celebrates her 10th year
in Skyline. You can't miss Crystal as she
stands 6 ft tall and is on the Skyline Floor
team. She has sung both lead and bass previously
and has competed with two quartets at IES
in the Rising Star Competition. Besides
working on her Master's Degree at the University
of Denver, working a full time job, being
on the Skyline floor team, and quarteting,
she still manages to shop for the quartet
making sure they are in no way "frumpy".
Crystal is the only single member of the
quartet, and that alone makes for some fun
M.C. material!
