Music Street Journal – Karney Consistently Releases Intriguing Music
Karney – No MercyReview by Gary Hill Karney consistently releases intriguing music. Her sound is typically hard to pin down, but lands closest to progressive rock. That said, there is music here that’s not prog. I have to say that I question the choice for opener because if there is a song that doesn’t work as well as the rest, that’s it. The closing section of the album is the strongest, too. Read the full review here: http://www.musicstreetjournal.com/index_cdreviews_display.cfm?id=106350

KARNEY – How’d a white girl get so funky? Urban Rag – September 2001 by Erwin A. Karl Although I’ve been spinning discs and giving my opinion for a few moons now, I must defer to the judgment of funk high priest George Clinton who asked the hyperbolic rhetorical question of Karney, “How’d a white girl get so funky?” A first rate singer songwriter who has always supported herself through commercial and creative music gigs (no day jobs!!?!), Karney shows a knack for masterful vocals and instrumental themes, and as writer and producer, blends up musical styles and guest artists like a good DJ –...

KARNEY – A Great Record By Yet Another Talented Local Musician Zero Magazine – July/August 2001 Remy Armstrong This CD displays the songwriting skills of local singer/songwriter Karney and her diverse musical styles, which she molds into each of her songs. The CD starts off with “Pretty Boy” which is more of an acoustic rock song along the lines of Sheryl Crow.The song shows the power of the singer/songwriter’s smooth, yet powerful voice.

KARNEY – Karney Salutes You CMJ New Music Report – Issue 755 – Mar 25, 2002 by Kristy Martin San Francisco native Karney channels the spirits of female singer/songwriters past and present on her self-titled debut, including Aimee Mann, Edie Brickell, Concrete Blonde’s Johnette Napolitano and Pat Benatar. Dark, airy vocals and oozing horn arrangements pepper the singer’s funky style; “Pretty Boy” is acoustic yet soulful, with a tinge of sarcasm, while the single “Shell-Shock Girl” – which has since been remixed for radio – is a plea for world peace (hence the title) highlighted by emotive...
