Kelowna Folk Club presents Karen Savoca
Karen Savoca's baby diary reads, "20 months, knows six songs." Born in northern NJ, daughter of a big band singer, her mother was not at all surprised to find her constantly dancing and singing. Karen studied piano at the age of eight, and at thirteen cracked her piggy bank to buy a guitar. She started writing songs in her early teens, was a soloist in choirs, played in many bands, and has always had a deep love of performing.
"A voice with this much strength and easy confidence is a rare find. But that's not where Savoca's talents end. Her songs are filled with good humor, sensuality, and nature's simple pleasures. She can work a sly smile into a lyric that makes you smile in spite of yourself. Open up and let her in." - All Music Guide
Acoustic Guitar magazine calls Pete Heitzman "A true virtuoso of groove, with a canny touch that, combined with Savoca's in-the-pocket drumming and spectacularly soulful vocals, gives the duo the impact of a four-piece band."
Having performed together for decades, Savoca and Heitzman's chemistry leaves audiences uplifted, wowing 10,000 from a festival main stage as effortlessly as they charm an intimate living room concert.
$20.00 tickets for members go on sale at noon on Friday October 6th at ABC Hobby and Mad Hatter Bookstore (cash only please at both locations). General public sales start on Tuesday October 10. All proceeds of tickets sales go directly to the artists.
