Pitch The Tide: Hildee Isaacs – Gotta Sing Events

Listen Later
In this session, Hildee Isaacs presented Gotta Sing Events, a group sing-along experience designed for restaurants, venues, and communities that want joy, connection, and full dining rooms on off nights. A lifelong theater lover and creative producer, Hildee is building a turnkey format for guests who love to sing but hate karaoke. Think dinner first, then a 90-minute hosted sing-along with a DJ-MC, curated playlists, and on-screen lyrics so everyone can join without pressure. The concept starts with Broadway but flexes to themes like Sinatra, Taylor Swift, Yacht Rock, or corporate team nights, and it travels easily to 55+ and memory-care communities where familiar songs spark recall and togetherness. Gotta Sing Events handles ticketing and production while restaurants gain predictable traffic and content-worthy moments. It’s a simple idea done thoughtfully, turning tables into a chorus and nostalgia into new regulars.

Interview Takeaways:
  • Off-Night Opportunity: Gotta Sing Events gives restaurants a fresh way to fill seats and create memorable experiences on slower nights without the cost of live entertainment.
  • Inclusive Fun: The sing-along format removes the pressure of karaoke, letting everyone participate together through on-screen lyrics and themed playlists.
  • Scalable Joy: From Broadway nights to memory-care centers, Gotta Sing Events scales easily across venues and audiences, bringing connection, nostalgia, and new energy to every space.
