"I want everyone to go asap and check out Kari K. Kari K. is our first artist that we are sponsoring. We are hooking her up with sweet Ts for her to rock out in while she rocks your ears. She’s also going to be wearing Sir. Jane on her album cover. Ya’ll this chick is going to be major. From the time I first heard her music, I wanted to sing along. The shit is insanely good. So ya’ll be looking for her album to drop and go check out one of her shows. She is going to be hanging out with us on Sept. 17th so everyone needs to come by and say hi."

"Kari Kuwamura, or Kari K as she’s known, has been winning fans with regular Houston appearances ever since HWF first introduced her at our 2007 Kickoff celebration. Her original music is a mural of her life representing where she’s been, where she’s going and what she’s been through. It’s candid yet ever reaching into the World." http://www.hwfestival.org/
[ H o u s t o n W o m e n s F e s t i v a l: 2008 ]
"Kari Kuwamura is an acoustic songstress born and raised in San Antonio, Texas. Currently a local favorite based around her monthly first Friday performances; she has attracted a lot of attention with her shimmering vocals, fantastic guitar playing and catchy rock/pop melodies. Akin to the likes of Ani DIfranco, Pink, KT Tunstell, Alicia Keys, Sheryl Crow and Kelly Clarkson, Kari is one of the rare female solo artists that actually rock! With a reputation for very high energy live performances and talent to boot, Kari is slowly but surely making her way out of coffeehouses and onto the big stage. As cliched as it may sound, for Kari Kuwamura (or Kari K. for short) music is her life. Its part of a tapestry, a mural that represents her life, where she's been, where she's going and what she's been through. Sexy yet sensitive, her vocals carry a weight and maturity that resonates. The music is candid yet ever reaching, out into the world, filling our hearts with song."
[H i t t M u s i c G r o u p: 2007]
"Kari Me Sober killed it, simply and truthfully. Her set was full of energy, with her passionate vocals and outstanding support from the band. Happy 3rd anniversary, Orlando!"
