Unleash Your Inner Rockstar at These Texas Karaoke Bars
If we know our readers (and we like to think we do), then we know you have the voices of angels. It’s a fact. With such beauty contained within, it would be a shame to keep it all to yourself. That’s why we invented karaoke bars—to let that inner light shine out. Whether you prefer to belt out the classics or give your twist to a modern hit, the following karaoke bars should do you just fine.
Hi Tunes, Austin, TX
Hi Tunes in Austin takes the traditional “noraebang” karaoke room from Korea and gives it a Texas twist. Visitors can choose their room size, number of hours, and food and drink. Then, they spend the rest of the night singing their hearts out. For those that aren’t as interested in getting up in front of a crowd of strangers but wouldn’t mind belting it out in front of friends, Hi Tunes is the perfect spot.

River Bottom’s Pub, Fort Worth, TX
Ever want to sing where your parents sang? Stand in the spot where your mom and dad might have met and fallen in love? At River Bottoms Pub, your singing can carry through the ages as you join a long tradition of singers, drinkers, and partiers to have sung their hearts out in these hallowed halls. And if you’re not into that hippie-dippie stuff, keep in mind that they’ve been in business since 1956 and certainly know how to show you a good time.
Jack’s Pour House, Grand Prairie, TX
Stop me if you know how this goes: You’re hanging out on a Saturday afternoon and you don’t have anything to do for the night. You know you want a place that has custom cocktails, free pool tables, a dance floor, and karaoke, but you have no idea what kind of magical place might fit the bill. Then it hits you: Jack’s Pour House! Of course! They have all this and more—everything you need to turn your boring Saturday into a night to remember.
Skooners Grill and Bar, Lubbock, TX
According to Skooners Grill and Bar, “Life isn’t a cabaret. It’s a dive bar.” Of course, that doesn’t stop them from giving in to their inner cabaret every once in a while—specifically, every Friday and Saturday, where DJ Damon takes the karaoke floor.
