The entire project, from ideation to completion, has seen young, enthusiastic entrepreneurs, happy tradies and friends from all over town bring their ideas, skills and knowledge to the team. “The experience from the karaoke rooms to the tiniest details in design aims to feel a little foreign yet comfortable who doesn’t like a good Bidet? Much like a trip to Japan, people will try and discover new things – this is a great feeling.” From the moment you enter, with the outdoor cubed lightbox enticing you in and recreating a typical Japanese shopfront, all the way through to the bar area which brings a Shinjuku back alley watering hole vibe to life, and even to the unisex bathrooms they’ve got hi-tech Japanese toilets! No expense has been spared or thought unthought of. “Ultimately we wanted to provide a safe space where people can relax and enjoy themselves.” He was already researching business names and liquor licenses so, it was on,” Joel said.Ī few years and a whole lot of work later, Jam’s Karaoke & Bar came to life, and with Jam’s being not only the city’s first Karaoke bar but also the first Tachinomi styled bar it’s super exciting to see Newcastle embracing something a little different.
“I woke up the next morning and called Andrew to see if it wasn’t just the beers talking. We might have had quite a few under the belt at the time but the topic of opening a karaoke bar in Newcastle was raised and I was just like, let’s do it,” Andrew told me. “The plan was set in motion after Joel returned home from Japan at the beginning of 2017 and we caught up for some beers. Rewind a few years, Andrew was visiting Joel whilst he was living in Osaka, Japan the karaoke centre of the world, and it was always a point of conversation that Newcastle didn’t have that same karaoke offering. But how exactly did two young engineers come to the idea of opening up a Karaoke joint? Long-time mates Andrew Coughlan & Joel Hillier have been working tirelessly with some of the best creatives across town over the past 12months to bring Jam’s to life. Well, now you have no excuse but to stretch those vocal cords and sing to your heart’s desires in our very own City of Newcastle! There’s something about being in your own private room, surrounded by your best mates, sipping on cocktails, downing beers, and blasting out to the high notes of Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. Immerse yourself in an authentic karaoke experience, with private, fully-serviced rooms and modern karaoke machines.
