| Hi, I'm Karen. I'm a writer/musician based in Brooklyn, NY. I play guitar and a variety of other instruments with many fine folks in the NYC roots/Americana scene (yes, there is one!), and have just released my first solo recording. I grew up in Boise, Idaho, which New Yorkers find exotic for some strange reason. |

Hey Karen from Down Under. Found you on CD Baby and found you here via Google after listening to a preview of Gem State. Nice stuff. Good luck with it. Cheers and regards.

Gem State is one of the most original recordings I’ve listened to in a long time. Got the CD from CDBaby as I wanted the cover artwork. The songs give a window into the lives of those that lived then. Great lyrics, great musical compositions, and great audio production.
I hope you do some more projects like this one.
