No Audition Singing at The Canton Brewing Company Wednesday, Sept 16
by Krista Schweitzer via NEohioPAL 09 Sep '15

09 Sep '15

Forget Auditions and Commitments - Find the Door and Just Sing! The Canton Brewery is partnering with Voices of Canton, Inc. to bring you a new group singing experience: SingStark! It’s a no-commitment, no-audition chorus perfect for anyone who loves to sing and those who secretly love to sing in the shower and in the car. SingStark kicks off on September 16 at 7 p.m. at The Canton Brewing Company Speakeasy, 227 Market Ave N. and will continue every third Wednesday of each month. SingStark was created to be equal parts social and musical: Make some great Speakeasy memories at the Canton Brewery by singing together with friends to your favorite songs, while enjoying great beer dating all the way back to the 1880s. How can you participate in SingStark? The first step is to #FindTheDoor to The Canton Brewing Company Speakeasy and pay a five-dollar cover charge. The second step is to #JustSing. It is that simple. Inspired by similar groups such as Pop-Up Chorus in Durham, North Carolina, SingStark is an easy and fun way for would-be singers to enjoy singing with a group but without the time commitment required from a traditional choir. Participants in SingStark will learn two popular songs each month which they perform, record and film on the same night. Singers can also find out if they got captured on film by checking out the SingStark Youtube page. It is never the same group twice - meet new people, sing old and new songs! For more information, check out www.voicesofcanton.org/singstark.
