The Christmas party season is always the busiest time of the year for Rockaoke. It’s the perfect chance for CEO’s to strut around a stage instead of the boardroom, before being blown away by ‘Malcolm from IT’ whose death defying performance of Rage Against The Machine instantly becomes company legend.
Last year alone we brought christmas party rock stardom to the likes of Google, Sky, Mercedes F1 team ( including Nico Rosberg ), Ernst & Young, ASOS, Nintendo, O2, Leeds United FC and many many more. Here’s a quick glimpse at some of the 50+ parties played in December 2015 by the original, all singing, all crazy dancing, totally rocking, full band Rockaoke.
This Christmas we’ve come up with a few new tricks to add even more Yuletide fun to your christmas party. You can either add them onto the beginning of your Rockaoke based event or as a stand alone booking.
The Rockaoke Mariachi Band
Get the party going early with a visit from our sing a long Mariachi Band. It could be during a sit down meal, around the office in the afternoon or at a drinks reception; the band will walk around the crowd, playing classic christmas party hits and encouraging revellers to warm up their vocal chords. This is the perfect starter to serving up full band Rockaoke as your main entertainment course.

Acoustaoke
Your venue maybe a bit short on space or the neighbours oddly get annoyed by live rock bands next door – so why not consider Acoustaoke?! This is a stripped down, zero emissions version of Rockaoke, using acoustic instruments and minimal sound equipment. Acoustaoke goes down a storm at private house parties but would also drop nicely into a communal work space for lunchtime fun or as part of pre dinner drinks. Christmas party song lists and elf hats provided as standard and don’t worry, it’s just as lively as it’s big brother Rockaoke. See proof below
Using the hundreds of songs in their repertoire and a love of music trivia, Rockaoke have developed their own take on the traditional music quiz – and it’s perfect for any christmas party. Whether you opt for a few rounds during dinner or make it the main event, The Christmas Album provides festive rounds that mix a standard music quiz with ROCKAOKE madness. Test yourself with live intros / riffs, beat the night club singer, try to sing the next line or dare to take on the ROCKAOKE challenge. This has bamboozled contestants from the fields of Isle of Wight Festival to corporate events at Hard Rock Cafe.
“Rockaoke created a Live Musical Quiz for us at the Hard Rock Cafe last Christmas. It was perfectly pitched at our audience, with lots of relevant festive rounds which were both fun and interactive. The live rounds were great and the highlight had to be the sing the next line round which turned into a huge Bon Jovi sing-a-long at the end of the night – all in all, a great event” Faye Lewington – Senior Client Relationship Manager – BDO
Drop us a line and let us know what combinations of Rockaoke madness you’re prepared for this Christmas!

Through our regular nights at AAA in South Kensington, we made friends with some of the people who work with the rock band MARILLION. The upshot of this was they asked us to come out and play at their Weekender at Port Zelande in the Netherlands in march 2015. We were scheduled to play an aftershow party on the saturday and sunday nights – well the early hours of the following mornings to be precise.
We anticipated 2 great shows. But fair to say we didn’t quite know what to expect. Marillion pretty much invented the whole crowd funding thing and owe their continued existence to their fanatically loyal / loyally fanatical fanbase. Over the weekend, it felt like we were adopted as a part of this wonderful family the band and their fans have created. Being part of a family is just how it felt!
The 2 shows were brilliant. We were made very welcome and enjoyed playing with some fabulous performers who all well and truly bought into the spirit of Rockaoke. We all had a lot of fun!
The highlight of the weekend came around 1am on monday morning when Marillion singer Steve Hogarth (“H”) joined us on stage. We reckon he’d been performing for around 10 hours over the weekend but he still managed to muster the energy and the voice to perform 3 songs as a thankyou to his adoring fans.
Playing at the AAA at Archangel on the first and third Friday of every month, Rockaoke is the UK’s original, best and, well, only specialist live karaoke band, giving people the chance to ‘live the dream’ up on the stage with the backing of a full live band.
Unique among the karaoke bars, Rockaoke has been spreading its brand of fully interactive rock’n’roll fun for the last eight years, both up and down the country as well as worldwide.
“Londoners, are you living? I mean, really living? Well, it’s high time you started and to kick you off, this week’s issue of Time Out Magazine is dedicated to the lost art of YOLOing. Yep, you may well be aware that You Only Live Once, so we’ve rounded up the most impulsive, wild, fun and fancy-free stuff to do in the city. “
You only live once – so have stupid amounts of fun with London’s finest WTF experiences.
Becoming a ROCK STAR is a long process involving countless hours of practice and oodles of talent (all that commitment, all those sacrifices, being in the right place at the right time, knowing the right people, kissing the right ass etc… etc…)
Ain’t NOBODY got time for that!
Just jump on stage with the dudes from ROCKAOKE at one of their London ROCKAOKE NIGHTS and belt out some tunes with a LIVE ROCK BAND.
