​How is a business born...?Kacey’s Karaoke is Karen Cobb’s baby. With hundreds of karaoke and singing competitions & championshipsunder her belt Karen was exposed to so many successful and unsuccessful shows that she decided to create her own weekly show and patterned the best qualities from all the shows she attended to create her own style of hosting. Then Kacey’s Karaoke was created. For over 20 plus years Karen has hosted weekly Karaoke in restaurants & lounges all over California. Karen has also, trained dozens of hosts to follow in her footsteps of hosting a fun, friendly, current, easy & mostly mobile karaoke show. Kacey’s Karaoke is a mobile all-in-one service and has hosted for corporates, hospitals, school proms and grad nights. Basically, we provide karaoke most anyplace - if there’s a plug, there can be karaoke! Karen decided that the karaoke needed a sibling to add to her karaoke family that will enhance the entertainment experience that her company provided. She added the photobooth component to the evening, where people take digital photos in an open-air photo booth with props and receive the souvenir photo containing 3 poses. This add- on was happily received and that’s how Kacey’s Karaoke & Photobooth was born. Over the years Karen saw a growing need for a home karaoke system for the clients that wanted to be their own karaoke host. So, Karen pared down the Karaoke system and simplified it for home use allowing you to have the full Karaoke experience while sitting on your couch and running the system yourself! And then the baby of the family was born, Kacey’s Karaoke Rentals. Kacey’s Karaoke & Photobooth & Kacey’s Karaoke Rentals’ motto is,” We bring the Karaoke, YOU provide the singers and the memories”.
