Malcolm and Lynn Shiroma have built a thriving family-oriented karaoke business and are preparing a strategic expansion to the neighbor islands and mainland over the next five years.
The husband-and-wife team, who anticipate gross sales to exceed $1 million this year from Krazy Karaoke, are looking at franchising opportunities, which is expected to take the company to the next level.
The couple have found a niche in the competitive karaoke market, focusing on children’s parties, baby showers and birthdays at their two locations at the Pearl Kai Shopping Center and on Young Street.
The Shiromas also juggle a second career in real estate, operating Property Center Inc. — a sales and property management company — from the second floor of the Young Street location.
While unexpected, being involved in a music-related career comes natural to the Shiromas. Lynn is a former a backup singer with Liz Damon’s Orient Express, a local band from the 1970s, while Malcolm was a trombone player for a rock band — known as Warning — while at Kaimuki High School.
