New Sound Scaryoke: Escape To Bitch Mountain

This HALLOWEEN!!!!

We've conjured a video-filled Halloween Scream-a-long bash of nightmarish proportions at Monkeytown in Brooklyn.

Celebrate the ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY of The New Sound Karaoke with the fever dream of wall-to-wall projections of original music videos that you can sing, scream, or be killed to.

In this late-night monsterpiece theatre, discover the shocking truth behind the disappearance of our karaoke baby spawn, miraculously birthed in our last video, and now vanished deep in the woods of Bitch Mountain. How, you ask? Find out!---as the staccato rhythms keep the
blood racing to tip of your Cucumber Castle.

And if that isn't reanimating enough, watch live projections of horrifying guest performers as they sing special editions of karaoke videos decomposed by yours truly. Then rise from your grave to sing from our dizzying list of 10,000 songs and electrify the stage.

It's time to take your She-Wolf out of the closet AND ESCAPE TO BITCH MOUNTAIN, because this is lycanthropy.

Changes coming. Up all night!


Your trusty Married Karaoke Duo have been crafting their latest video in their newly appointed edit suit, formally a nursery.

As you know, our lovely New Sound Baby is no longer with us. Baby has found a new home.

A new family structure, new edit suite, and a new video demand even more changes! Our next New Sound Karaoke event will be held in a NEW location, on a NEW night. BIG SECRET!

Of course, we're always tearing it up at the Alligator Lounge every Thursday night from 10pm-2am and love to hear your vocals!

More soon,

XX

Tragedy strikes, but new video on the way!

Mere moments after winning an award for artistic excellence in the art of Karaoke Videomaking, we were struck with a tragedy of orchestral proportions at the New Sound mountain retreat just steps away from the Omega Institute in upstate New York. Our blessedly perfect union was nearly detuned, derailed, and defrocked forever! What happened, you ask? Well, if Whitney is brave enough to release a new album with a drug scortched voice, we can certainly drum up the courage to open up to you, our faithful fa-la-la'ing followers:

Our Baby was taken away from us and it brings a river of tears to think it has a new home. We know you demand details - and You Are Not Alone - but it is simply too painful and complicated for the written word.

Thankfully, we know how to communicate larger than life issues and emotions with artistic precision! We know what will mend the gaping chasm in our hearts: The divine, mysterious splendor of the Karaoke Video!

In our household minus one, we sing through the pain in wide angles, cake make-up, feathery bangs, perms, bobs, and haute couture. We spare no expense, monetary or emotional - and we have wasted no time getting back behind the camera and in front of the microphone! We are strong!

HERE WE ARE - on location, shooting our way though the pain, desperately hoping to hear our Heartbeats once again. It's going to be a painful video, but it must be done!



P.S. Baby, if you can read this from your new home - please be sure to check our website in about a month! We know you'll need the catharsis too!

God bless,
Black Waterfall & Bobby Service

A Lifetime of Achievement


What an Honor! This past week, we were FINALLY recognized for our achievements artistic and otherwise at the Music Video Awards Screening @ Canada gallery. Our short climb to the top has been no shortage of tears, punishing high notes, raw-throated desire, and yes JOY. And it's all worth it because of our fans. But being awarding winning fantasy karaoke chantueses does not mean we rest contented on our laurels. This week we are hard at work to bring you another video premiere that promises to top the uncharted seas of musical homage!
Til then,

Love
Waterfall & Bobby

BLESSED NEW DESIGN!

Dear Karaoke Enthusiast,

Since neither of us will be needing a face lift any time soon (as we have skin tighter than Ted Haggard's buns of steel) we decided to give our web site one! You will enjoy it!

In case you don't already know, Waterfall and I have let our hair down for an "it's causal" karaoke night every Thursday at the Alligator Lounge in Brooklyn. Simplicity = perfection! That means all the FREE KARAOKE and FREE BRICK OVEN PIZZA your little song bird heart desires! All this in addition to our regular karaoke blow-out bonanzas at That's My Jam every month!!!

Thank the heavens up above! I think we just had a musical orgasm! And, as if you need more, we had a sweet little baby - a glorious water birth... We tell the whole amazing story in our new summer karaoke video sensation, 'Hold On Baby Mama'!!! It's taking YouTube by storm! Yes, lord! Yes! Eat your plastic-bubble crusted heart out Lady Gaga!

Love and B-flats!
Bobby Service & Black Waterfall.
