Music affects each of us individually, & the emotions we associate with a song are determined by our specific history. Karaoke Storytellers takes a closer look into those personal histories with music, and lends a microphone to those who have a story about a song.

Each show features 7 performers telling a short story about a song followed by a karaoke performance of the song. Performers include four booked members of the Chicago community, one headliner, one audience volunteer, & Franny Giroux (the show’s creator). The show is hosted by Chicago native & master storyteller, Jacoby Cochran.

*Following the show will be one hour of open mic karaoke (ticket required).

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
