music:
She has the looks of a model, the presence of a superstar, and is the most down to earth person you will ever meet. Then you hear her voice - that "never-seen-a-cigarette-in-her-life-voice" - and find yourself singing along with her catchy, melodic, and timeless songs. Karen has performed across the US, Australia, Germany, England, Malaysia and Thailand alone at the grand piano, with a full band and a capella singing the anthem at major sporting events. She regularly performs at festivals with over 20,000 people to private events.

From
the
Great Barrier Reef to
Giant's StadiumOriginally from Mackay, a country town in the tropics near Australia's Great Barrier Reef, Karen performed in her first concert at the age of five and has rarely been off the stage since. Classically trained in piano and voice and flirting with jazz at the Queensland Conservatorium of Music, Karen was working as a jingle singer and live performer as often as she was in college classes. Relocating to Australia's largest city, Sydney, Karen landed a role in the Australian version of the Broadway show "Buddy - The Buddy Holly Story" - where she was cast for singing Star Spangled Banner. Regular national television appearances followed, including Good Morning Australia, Midday and a twelve-part series of the game show "I Do I Do". Karen's days were busy as a jingle and voice over artist, while she continued to write and play live up to five nights a week. Although her life was settled and successful, in 2000 Karen was ready to fulfill her long held dream to move to America. She recorded the piano/vocal album "As I Am", sold everything, and arrived in New York City on July 4th, 2000. Karen loves that there are fireworks for her every year on that anniversary! Her first performance of The Star Spangled Banner on American soil was to a sellout crowd at Fenway Park in Boston. Madison Square Garden, Dodger Stadium and many other major sporting events followed, with a performance for 80,000 people at a New York Jets game at Giants Stadium being a career highlight. She has appeared on network television in the US and Australia, her speaking voice is used in voice systems worldwide, and her new record "Kissing Someone Else" was released on Kurly Queen in January 2007 with a performance at Joe's Pub in New York City. After just completing a successful performance series at The Duplex, and having her music featured on NBC "PASSIONS", Karen has been invited to appear on The Hugh Thompson Show in NYC, and will be returning to Joe's Pub on June 25th for an encore performance with guest singer, Jenny Bruce. Her life is all about making a difference and doing it now. The music video for her single Melting Moments was inspired by Karen's recent experience in Africa performing for 250 children living in extreme poverty, and includes footage of that performance. She proudly combines charity work with her music, believing if we focus on our similarities instead of our differences, we will live in a world that works for everyone.
