The Oxford ClerksThe Oxford Clerks are a six-man close harmony a cappella group, formed in April 2008. Its members were all choral scholars at New College and Magdalen College, Oxford University.

A close harmony group, in the tradition of the Kings Singers, they represent that peculiarly English genre which  moves effortlessly from sixteenth century madrigals, through the more  American songs of Yale to arrangements of modern classics such as A nightingale sang in Berkeley Square.

The group launched a successful CD, Anything Goes in 2008, featuring classics from the 1930s to the 1950s and a second CD is released this August.
