About Me
What you are hearing is likely only a small sampling of the breadth of Karyn's music. What you will find upon deeper inspection is "something old, something new"...something soft, something hard, something melodic, something crunchy and raucous. Highly eclectic, and easily bored, Karyn aproaches music on several different fronts, just to keep things interesting.The first recordings were soft and acoustic for the most part. This is partially due to the influences at the time, and partially out of necessity since she was strictly a solo act when recording commenced.Since then a band has formed, and consequently the music has changed. Over time, so shall this page. We will be using this site to share the process as we record, overdubb, ect., so be sure to check back regularly to see the changes, and let us know what you think!If you love the soft, acoustic stuff have no fear - that will always be a part of the equation. We just can't be limited to that. Have guitar, must rock."...she has a fabulous voice..." says Susie Mudd of Music Monthly.Karyn can be seen with her band, the Knock Offs, and also performs as a solo or duo acoustic act.
