OUR STORY.

Karen’s musical roots run deep, all the way back to her great-grandmother, Hattie Bell, who was a shape note singer. This all but lost, musical style was considered to be the defining style that influenced African American spirituals.

Karen’s God given gift of song encompasses a melodic musical legacy that she discovered very early on as she performed the Battle Hymn of the Republic for her kindergarten graduation, which was a very mature song for someone at such a tender age.
