Singles matchmaking in Astoria, NYC — meet other single New Yorkers at Free Karaoke Night — Karaoke Shout, Astoria. Free live karaoke in the front bar — no room, no cover We're bringing the Nonna crew to Free Karaoke Night — Karaoke Shout, Astoria in Astoria. RSVP here, take the 2-minute compatibility quiz, and when you arrive we'll show you who in the room you actually match with. Free to join. You buy your own food — free to walk in and free to sing in the front bar — you just buy your own drinks. We stay in the front bar area, so there's no private room to book and nothing to split. How the night works: 1. RSVP in the app — that's what locks your spot. 2. Answer a few quick questions + add a photo. 3. Check in when you get there — that unlocks your matches. 4. Go say hi. That's the whole thing. Heads up: this is Free Karaoke Night — Karaoke Shout, Astoria's own night — we're bringing our people to it, not hosting a private room.
Singles Matchmaking Karaoke — Astoria, NYC starts Tuesday at 8pm at Karaoke Shout, 32-46 Steinway St. It is a hosted room rather than a turn-up-and-hope night: there is someone running it, a structure to the evening, and an easy way into a conversation that does not depend on walking up to a stranger cold. Nonna Picks members see in the app who in the room they are AI-matched with, scored on a 99-question compatibility quiz across seven fit dimensions, so you know why you match before you say hello.
Singles who came for the same reason you did. Nonna Picks is built for people dating intentionally, not casually, and the matching runs on compatibility rather than photos. Members can verify with a live selfie to earn a verified badge, reports are reviewed by a human moderator rather than a form-letter bot, and block and report are one tap from any profile or chat — blocking is instant and mutual. Inclusive by default: every background, every gender, every orientation.
Most people arrive alone — that is the normal way to come to this. The evening is hosted, so you are not left to break into a circle by yourself, and the app tells you who in the room you are actually matched with, which replaces the hardest part of a night like this: deciding who to talk to. You can leave whenever you like, and nobody is told why.
This one is free to attend. Joining Nonna Picks itself is free for founding members, who keep every premium feature free for life — matching and messaging included. Capacity is 30, so RSVPs close when the room is full.
At a bar you are guessing. Here the compatibility work happens before you arrive: the app has already scored you against everyone else on 99 questions across values, life vision, family, money, lifestyle, emotional connection and growth, and it shows you who in the room scored highest. The night is for meeting those people in person rather than working a room at random.
