About Me

Really, I'm just a girl, dedicated to and passionate about music, love and life...Here's what my web bio says...Whether she's cutting to the heart with her emotion-driven original songs or belting out cover tunes, Karen's penetrating voice, rhythmic acoustic style and intense emotional energy combine to capture her audience's attention. A polished performer as well as an excellent songwriter, Karen received a songwriting award from Nashville's Music City Search in 2002. In addition, several of her songs have been featured on Dawson's Creek. Karen has spent the past ten years performing in the Cape Cod vacation destination - Provincetown, MA. After a four years of full time music, Karen now balances her love of performing with her passion for working with kids. She continues to perform at clubs, festivals, coffee houses, restaurants and colleges. She's performed in all six New England states as well as New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, North Carolina, Florida, Illinois, Wisconsin and California. According to Karen, "It's all about being genuine in your life and connecting with people... If I can do that, I've achieved success." Here's the song I sang for the Boston Pride Idol Contest!!!

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 14/11/2005
Band Website: www.kgrenier.com
Band Members: Occasionally I perform with percussionist Laura Wood. She is fabulously talented. My two sisters, Deanna Maples and Michelle Coombes join me on stage when they can for some riveting three part harmonies... View Karen Grenier's EPK
Influences: As a performer and songwriter I'm greatly influenced by the energy, courage and honesty of Melissa Etheridge. Other influences and inspirations are Joni Mitchell, The Indigo Girls, Bonnie Raitt, Alanis Morrisette, Sheryl Crow, Neil Diamond, Elton John, Janis Joplin, Rush, Stevie Nicks... I'm sure there are many more. But my biggest influence was a friend of my parents. His name was Ray Marquis, and he used to play guitar and sing at lounges and clubs back when I was a kid... My parents would take me and my sisters "to see Ray" once in a while. I would just sit and stare, mesmerized, watching him play his guitar and sing!
Sounds Like: somewhere in the musical realm between Joni Mitchell and Melissa Etheridge...
