Finding Love, Home, and Yourself: Stories from Karaoke Storytellers
Every song has a story — that’s the idea behind Karaoke Storytellers. Performers get up, tell a story, and then sing a song related to that story. The event is hosted by host Jacoby Cochran. At the April event, we heard stories about finding love, finding yourself, and finding your home. Today, we’re telling you some of those stories.
The next Karaoke Storytellers is on June 19 at Schuba's Tavern. Check back here for a chance to win tickets!
