Entrepreneur Paul Devitt runs multiple entertainment venues across the country. From the Beauty Bar chain 鈥 where patrons can enjoy martinis and manicures 鈥 to Sid Gold鈥檚 Request Room, a jazzy piano karaoke bar in Manhattan鈥檚 trendy Chelsea neighborhood. In mid-July, Devitt brought the clandestine fun to downtown Detroit when he opened another branch of Sid Gold鈥檚 just behind the Siren Hotel.
Drinks at the speakeasy-like venue are exactly the kind of social lubricants needed to loosen up for a karaoke performance in the intimate space. 鈥淭his one is inspired by a sunset, but the name鈥檚 been changed to protect the innocent,鈥 says Devitt, reluctant to reveal any more information. You鈥檒l need to make a trip to learn more for yourself.听
