   About Karen Nash

MySpace Layouts
Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor - Image Hosting

Born in Texas, and inexplicably proud of such a dubious origin, Karen was raised in Pacoima and let down with a resounding thud on the outskirts of West Hollywood (Beverly Hills adjacent.) Evicted from her apartment in the late 90s, all her things sold by the court to pay the back rent, Karen set off on the road, just a girl and her boyfriend's car. (Charges of Grand Theft Auto were later dropped.) During her years of homelessness, Karen amassed an impressive collection of CDs which, unfortunately, she was forced to sell in order to support her growing dependence on fine chocolates. Despite these seemingly endless setbacks, Karen eventually became known for her impassioned defense of fecklessness, hopeless love, and the U.S. Constitution. Karen has mystified audiences from coast to coast, going so far in the service of her art that, during at least one performance, she held several members of the audience hostage until the rest of the ticket-holders sang along with her rendition of “Second-hand Rose.” She has played to enthusiastic crowds at festivals such as the Birkenstock Fair and the Oregon Wheatgrass Festival, as well as bringing her eccentric song-stylings to prestigious listening rooms like Mr. B's in Burbank and North Hollywood's Star Garden.

So what's new w/Karen Nash? How are ya?

BTW, I heard your version of Somebody to Leave, courtesy of Bob. It was off-the-hook. Karen Nash sings the blues as good as anybody out there... Etta James, eat your heart out :) I totally dug it.

Hey, Karen... your name came up today, so I figured I'd come by and say hi... you sound as good as ever, of course and I only have one question after looking at a couple of your pics... do you plan on looking 25 forever cause you have NOT aged a day in all the years i've known you. ;)
