A video karaoke night featuring over 1,000 punk and indie rock classics for fans to sing along.
The Karaoke Underground is taking over Knomad Bar on Saturday, August 1, from 8 PM to 1 AM. It's a video karaoke night built for punk and indie rock fans who like to sing, with lyrics on screen, a stage, and a catalog of more than 1,000 punk and indie classics to choose from. If you've spent your life singing along to those records in your car, this is your chance to do it with a mic in your hand.
The catalog is the real draw here. With over a thousand titles, it's not just the obvious hits; it's a deep dive into the punk and indie songs that usually don't make it onto a standard karaoke list. You can pick something everyone knows or dig for a cut that only a few people in the room will recognize. The lyrics stay on screen, so you don't have to memorize every line before you step up.
This isn't a brand-new project, either. The Karaoke Underground has been staged at Matador 21 and Fun Fun Fun Fest, and it's been featured in The Village Voice, Noisey, Consequence of Sound, and Buzzfeed. It's a format they've brought to a few different stages, and this is the next stop.
