Karaoke is our community in song, our channel of catharsis. I’ve seen versions of AQUA and Tina Turner that are burned into my memory. Karaoke is the forgery, the dupe, the knockoff raised to the status of a new original fuelled by the enthusiasm of the amateur. Come sing with us at Union Gallery in a warm and welcoming space of resonant expression. Imitation may be the sincerest form of flattery, but even better is your will to mark the song with the distinctiveness of your spirit.
