Ever wanted to be a rock star? Do you secretly sing into a hairbrush whilst posing in a mirror? We’ve all done it (and some of us sing Abba), but now Paloma at the InterContinental wants you to shake it – in public. Every Monday this month, join the Big Mouth band onstage for a live karaoke extravaganza: no screens, no oddly melodic karaoke version of your favourite ballad, just a live backing band and your moment in the spotlight. Pick your preferred karaoke jam and let loose! The band will choose their favourites and there will be weekly and monthly winners, plus free drinks for everyone who participates (we’re going to imagine there will be quite a few, free or otherwise, before people take the stage).
