About / Biography

Hello! We are Ashford-Smith Karaoke, otherwise known as A.S.Karaoke.

We are a Mobile Karaoke Service, based in Sittingbourne, hosting for all ages & various types of events within the whole of the Kentish area.

However, we are more than your typical Karaoke box. We provide a full live set-up, as so to give you the full Live Act/Rockstar Experience!

We host your event for you as KJ's (Karaoke Jockey's), managing the queue and various settings for your guests/patrons, along with the following:

* These features are optional.

** Please understand that we do not run a full DJ set up. However, we are happy to work alongside other DJ's.

No event is too big or small, as we can cater for venues as small as micro-pubs or as large as village halls/function halls.

We also aim to provide both a family and disability (SEN) friendly service, hoping to cater to all as best as we can; aiming for a general sense of inclusivity!

Our equipment is PAT tested, and we are Public Liability Insured & DBS checked.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

We can work to most room sizes, having previously worked for micro-pubs all the way through to large halls.
The only things we would require is access to at least one power socket and space to park one car.
If possible, an internet connection would also be desirable.


What information do you require about a venue?

We would require address details and parking restriction information (if any).

Information on any sound limiters in the venue would also be desirable


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

We provide twin 700W speakers for the audience, a 250W floor monitor for the singers, and plenty of RGB Lighting in various forms.


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, we can provide music between Karaoke tracks via Spotify. We would either use one of our pre-generated playlists, or you can provide a custom playlist of your choosing for us to use at your event

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

The best gig we have ever done would be the first time we set up Karaoke at The Bear Inn in Faversham. Everyone who attended that evening were really into their Karaoke, and the crowd were buzzing/dancing along to ever

The best venue we have ever worked at would be at the Court Lodge Estate in Lamberhurst. Such a fantastic and well-kept building, steeped in history, along with its immaculate gardens.


What's your favourite type of event?

My favourite type of event would have to be bar/pub karaoke nights, as the regulars who come along to our various venues are quite talented. However, we (the hosts), also get a chance to sing on these nights!


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I have always been involved with Karaoke in some form, as my family growing up were also doing Karaoke at family gatherings/parties. I was always finding new and different ways of hosting Karaoke for the family, and then I was asked by a friend to start doing Karaoke as a favour at her micro-pub.
I agreed to this, and as time went by I gained more equipment and knowledge and decided to start doing other venues with this in January 2020, but with an incredibly low fee.
And of course, COVID happened. 2 years later, we were back at it and then started going to more venues, and then eventually registered as a business in 2024!


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

I have got several influences, so I shall listen the artists who I tend to sing a lot of their songs on Karaoke instead:
- Tom Jones
- Queen
- Gary Moore
- Muse
- Foo Fighters

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

We can work to any performance times the client wishes and we are happy to flexible with times if the client wishes to go on for longer. However it is worth noting that it typically takes 1.5 hours (90 mins) to set up all of our gear. We tend to pack-up within an hour at the event of the event.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, weather depending. We are happier if inside a gazebo.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

Clients have full control over the songs they sing and what we play in-between karaoke tracks if they have made a custom playlist.
However, we doing have a couple songs that are in a "Blacklist", which have been placed there due to racial language, extremely vulgar language, or other themes that are deemed too extreme.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

We are typically described as the full Live Act/Rockstar Experience!
