Description

Fresh from the Cyndi Lauper tour with Jennifer Marks, Pop Piano Singer and Songwriter Karen Jacobsen has arrived and is ready to take center stage. On September 23rd 2004 in front of a sold out crowd at NYC's The Duplex, Jacobsen previewed songs from her first full in studio production Here In My Heart, officially released on February 8th.

A collection of melody-driven songs with Karen's distinctively passionate vocals, the pop production of Here In My Heart proudly maintains the integrity of the Singer/Songwriter. Mixed by the in-demand Andy Zulla (Jessica Simpson/Ricky Martin/Backstreet Boys), and with tracks Produced by Andy, Julian Harris (Diana King/Maria Christensen) and Karen, guest musicians include Shawn Pelton (Sheryl Crow/SNL), Ben Butler (Rod Stewart/Dar Williams), Richard Hammond (Jonatha Brooke), String Arranger Max Surla (The Corrs), Jeff Cohen and UrbanMuse artists Jenny Bruce and Jennifer Marks.

2004 was a milestone year for this Aussie born and New York based artist. Karen performed the Star Spangled Banner at Dodger Stadium, Fenway Park and Madison Square Garden, placed runner up in the Kauai Music Festival, and appeared on the main stage at Los Angeles, Jersey City & Ottawa Pride Festivals. In November her success continued, singing the anthem at a New York Jets game to a capacity crowd of 80 000 at Giants Stadium. Karen has been honored with many awards including the Songwriters Hall of Fame's Abe Olman Award for Excellence in Songwriting and in the Billboard, John Lennon, Unisong and USA Song Contests. Sharing the stage with Norah Jones, Uncle Kracker and Jars of Clay, Karen made her U.S. Network Television Debut on the NBC-TV Special Dare To Dream, filmed at Mohegan Sun Arena.

Originally from Mackay (near Australia's Great Barrier Reef) Karen established her career in Sydney performing regularly on national television shows including Good Morning Australia and touring to Malaysia and Thailand. Aussies may also know her as 'Speechify Karen' - the speaking voice of Telstra's Talking Text.

Leaving Australia with only one suitcase, she arrived in Manhattan to carve her own niche, playing regularly at The Duplex, and touring throughout the U.S. performing at clubs, colleges and house concerts. Since that time, Karen has released two acoustic piano and vocal records, As I Am and Being Brave; her song Supposed To Say was included on the WB's Dawson's Creek DVD; and the Australian Consulate in New York City hosted an event in her honor - the Consul-General himself introducing Karen to the invitation only crowd.

With the arrival of Here In My Heart, Karen will be performing at release shows in New York, London, Los Angeles and Sydney, and touring the U.S. in the spring of 2005. Tracks from the new record have already been included on the GoGirlsMusic Compilation CD as well as the Songwriters Hall of Fame New Writers Showcase Compilation.
