Vocal Star Ltd, a world leader in the karaoke sector, has announced the launch of International Karaoke Day. Celebrated on July 19th, the day is dedicated to the celebration, inclusion, acceptance, and fun of karaoke.
Studies have shown that karaoke can provide many physical and psychological benefits. Stimulating the brain, reducing stress, expressing emotions, showcasing talent, breathing better, improving memory, building confidence, and facilitating socialization are just a few of the positive effects.
In 1971, nightclub musician Daisuke Inoue invented the karaoke machine in Kobe, Japan, and is often considered to be the creator of the modern business model for karaoke. The July 19 date was chosen to commemorate this event, as 19 stands for the day, 7 for the month of July, and 1 to symbolize everyone coming together as one around the world.
Jay Taylor, Director of Vocal Star Ltd commented: “We have created this day to enable people all over the world to come together on this one day to celebrate karaoke, which in turn promotes inclusion, acceptance, grows confidence and is a really fun activity.”
