Like many clubs in The Villages, the beginning response was so overwhelming that the Karaoke Singers Club needed to find a larger location after their first few meetings. “Too many people came to the Summerhill pool, so the Recreation Department asked us to find a larger meeting area,” said Ingrid Texiera. The club has moved a few times and continued to grow since its first meeting on Feb. 29, 2004. Members currently meet at Mallory Hill Country Club patio from 4 to 7 p.m. on Mondays and have recently added a second singing venue from 4-7 p.m. Tuesday at Bourbon Street Restaurant in Spanish Springs. Andre Texiera, along with Ingrid, his wife of 18 years, started the club because of his background as a professional entertainer. Andre sings and plays piano and enjoyed a lengthy career providing entertainment in hotels and clubs in the New Hampshire area. “We moved here and heard the previous karaoke club had disbanded. I wanted to stay in music. Karaoke is very popular here. We decided to be a Villages club,” Andre said. Andre Texiera, the founder of the club, usually performs a song at the events. He describes himself as a ‘laid-back’ singer. JULY 2008
