"This musically versatile songbird has a bell of a voice; clear, lyrical...her latest CD is a first-rate work, featuring renderings of jazz, folk, and gospel songs."
-The Independent News
"Karen has put together an exquisite collaboration between members of the Blue Street Jazz Band and the sensual and passionate bell-tone quality of her voice...It's impossible not to find yourself sitting at an old jazz club on West 52nd Street in Soho during the 60's. You can almost hear the light tinkling of cocktail glasses and background conversation filling the room. The cigarette smoke billows then settles into Jason Wanner's piano calling in the beginnings of the first track, 'Sentimental Journey.'"
-Fresno Magazine
"Karen Marguth has a beautiful voice that is well-suited for a variety of genres. In fact, hints of other genres truly makes her CD a great listen for just about anyone...her energetic vocals, impeccable articulation, story telling, emotion, and bright tone unify the variety in the 18 tracks on this CD."
-The Undercurrent
"Karen is a wonderful vocalist...my favorite cut on the CD is her rendition of 'Sentimental Journey.'
-Bill Bruce, KFSR Radio
"Karen has put out a killer CD, so tasteful, and there are so many subtleties...the only thing better is to hear her in person."
-Jason Wanner, Blue Street Jazz Band
"Her voice will take your breath away. Listeners call up to ask 'Who was that, and where can I get her CD?"
-Bruce Campbell, KJWL Radio

A new shine on some old gems, and more...
author: Barbara Rawles
It was a surprise to hear someone of Karen's generation perform some older tunes with such respect and ease - as though she had been there when they were played on juke boxes. Her voice and personality create music that you want to hear over and over.
