MACON, Georgia (41NBC/WMGT) – In an effort to keep Macon Music alive, Grant’s Lounge is kicking off Karaoke in Place.

The virtual party happens within the karaoke app — Starmaker. Fans will be able to choose from thousands of songs from various genres.

“The public’s safety and health are most important to us. While the urge to congregate may be tempting, it’s important to stay home and adhere to the guidelines of government and health officials,” owners Ed Grant, Jr. and Cheryl Louder said.

The owners say they want to provide safe avenues for people to get together and enjoy themselves in the midst of uncertainty. And furthermore, to keep making music we can enjoy.

Karaoke fans can participate by following these four steps:
