Karaoke is where amateur singers go to shine! Or, in Nashville, where aspiring professionals sometimes go to try and drum up a following. It’s a low-stakes fame game where you can be an American Idol for a night. Music City is lucky to have a plethora of options for singing karaoke, and whether you’re a fan or not, there’s no denying it’s a staple of Nashville nightlife. 

In this episode, we dig in, learn the house rules, and do a little singing.

But first, we check in with interim news director Tony Gonzalez and midday news producer Cynthia Abrams for analysis of August 3rd’s election results.

Guests:

  • Jason Adkins, KJ at Lipstick Lounge 
  • Jacob Corenflos, karaoke lover and former karaoke host at Santa’s Pub
  • Brynn Plummer, co-founder of Hip-Hop Karaoke
  • Kira Small,  co-owner of Sid Gold’s Request Room

This episode was produced by Magnolia McKay.
