David Gaines (a.k.a. Dave The Karaoke Guy) is a classically trained musician with over 35 years of experience in all aspects of music and audio. An assistant organizer for the Karaoke All-Stars Meetup group based in Montgomery County, he has been hosting karaoke with his unique blend of humor, encouragement, and friendly banter at private events around the Washington/Baltimore area since 2009. Dave was formerly the weekly KJ at the Uptown Tap House in Washington, D.C.’s Cleveland Park neighborhood and is now the KJ for The Sign Of The Whale DC's weekly karaoke night. Large or small, indoors or outdoors, formal or informal - karaoke adds uniquely memorable fun to any event. Dave has either been a karaoke DJ or provided machine rentals at venues ranging from a home basement rec room to a backyard birthday party to nightclub dance floors to a Baltimore Hilton main ballroom. Dave brings the equipment you need, a huge variety of songs, and a big smile - you bring the voices! A Dave The Karaoke Guy show or system rental will make you and your family, friends or colleagues the stars at your next event!
