Better Than Therapy got its beginnings a year into COVID, with their first practices in singers’ masks. Laura Draelos and Anita LeCour, formerly in Sweet and recently retired, recruited Patty Brewer as tenor and Michelle Bunzel, who converted from bass to lead. Patty, tenor, sang for years with Sunny Disposition, has been actively involved with EMSC in many capacities, and enjoys playing tennis. Michelle currently sings in two choruses: EMSC and Rio A Cappella, works full-time and has also appeared in several theater productions in town. Anita , baritone, previously sang in Sunny Disposition, Winsome and Sweet, and plays piano for her church choir. Laura, bass, previously sang with Sweet, and is a champion racewalker.They share their love of barbershop singing and their desire to ‘spread the love’ as they share their music.
