Karen Barnett

37 from Portsmouth, United Kingdom
Actor, Musician
A dynamic performer with pitch perfect vocals; Karen has appeared nationally & internationally performing at some of the UK’s biggest venues, including the O2 Arena & Lakeside Country Club. Karen’s silky smooth tones are often likened to such great singers as Karen Carpenter, Eva Cassidy and Rumor, however it’s the variety of music Karen has to offer that makes her so appealing. A little something for everyone – a song for all occasions! Disco, Soul, Motown, Pop, Rock, Country, Rock ‘n’ Roll & Jazz, Karen’s repertoire has a song from the 40s up to the present day, which can go to make your event the one to remember. Karen has also sung backing vocals for Foreigner and enjoyed much success with her own Karen Carpenter tribute show and 60s/70s stage production Step Right Back.
