GRAND AND GREEN RIVER "A striking debut... Grand And Green River... is rich, full and lush, a fantastic rootsy record, chock full of the blues, a slight pop undertone, all overlaid with her haunting voice - a debut to be proud of... She's one to watch for sure, and this record heralds that to a tee." Sam Fell (Rhythms) Kara's "Grand And Green River " took first place in the Roots section for "Best CD" at The IAP Awards Kara's song Sky Is Falling has featured on the television series East Of Everything. It will also feature on the soundtrack for the show alongside notable artists such as The Waifs, Josh Pyke, Mia Dyson, Kasey Chambers & Shane Nicholson and Ash Grunwald.
