ON WHY YOU SHOULD PRACTICE YOUR CHRISTMAS TUNES
Do you think you could give James Corden a run for his money in Carpool Karaoke?
Well, now could be your chance. Cabpool Karaoke is returning to Sunderland and is looking for Adele, Britney Spears and Michael Buble wannabes to take part in their Christmas special.
Inspired by the popular karaoke series on James Corden’s Late Late Show, Station Taxis created a fivepart series earlier this year.
With more than 150,000 views and reaching more than 320,000 people on social media, the firm is going to release a festive edition.
Natalie Bland, marketing manager at Station Taxis, said: “Since we launched Cabpool Karaoke, we have had requests from customers and messages on social media from people asking us to do it again. We had so much fun creating it and it brought plenty of smiles to people’s faces, so we thought it would be great to get everyone into the festive spirit by bringing it back for a Christmas special.”
The first series featured drivers, customers, Sunderland pop-rock band Fire Lady Luck and celebrities like Katie Bulmer-Cooke and Mimic Men’s Carl Halbert.
Rob Berry, who has driven for Station Taxis for more than 20 Ed Sheeran (left) on Carpool Karaoke with James Corden years, featured in the last Cabpool series and will be starring in the Christmas special.
He said: “I’ve had people trying to sing with me in my taxi ever since. Our customers loved it and we certainly got a laugh out of it.”
Shooting will take place during the daytime of November 14. If you would like to take part email marketing@stationtaxis.com with your availability, where you would like picked up from and why they should choose you.
