Karen was born on Chicago’s south side, the second of eleven kids. Her roots are planted in blues and soul. She was set afire by Sarah Vaughan, The Indigo Girls, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Aretha Franklin, Brandi Carlile, and Cyndi Lauper.
She spent time working as a kids music teacher at the famed Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago, collaborated on various recording projects, and variety shows, commercial spots for radio and has fond memories of starting it all on a kids music variety television show on what was WCFC Chicago.
She was a finalist for the Sonoma County Singer Songwriter competition 2018 and a finalist at the 2019 Suburban Chicago’s Got Talent.
Karen plays heart opening original songs and hundreds of cover songs from Johnny Cash to Bob Marley, Dolly Parton to The Beatles… all The Feel Good Songs.

FRIDAY JAN 1TH. BEAT THE MEATLES at Casey’s Pub 8pm There are A LOT of Beatles cover bands. Why should you care about this one? Well, we don’t just play the hits, and we definitely don’t dress up and talk in fake english accents (maybe the accents sometimes). What we do is mix up setlists with improvisation, alternate versions of songs, and deep cuts from their huge and diverse catalog to please both hardcore Beatles and jam-band fans. Anywhere from Earth Wind and Fire’s funkified version of “Got To Get You Into My Life”, to Sonic Youth’s heavy and psychedelic, “Within You Without You”, anything is possible at a BTM show! A rotating cast of some of Chicago’s finest musicians come together to take you across the Beatles universe in a totally new and exciting way.
