Karen Lynne – Labour of Love

Released August 1998, this album is a beauty! It’s sweet and fresh and has a kind timelessness about it … one of those albums that never dates and it’s by no means your ‘average’ country music album.

A wonderful debut album from a singer who took the Australian Country Music industry completely by surprise, comprising of a delicate mix of material that ranges from traditional and contemporary Country through to Folk and Bluegrass flavours that showcase the purity of Karen’s voice perfectly.
Produced by Cletis Carr, the album contains 16 tracks, three of which are strong co-writes and a couple of other Australian penned tracks including a hauntingly beautiful version of the Henry Lawson poem “Water Lilly” and an exceptional version of Enda Kenny’s “Colours of Australia”. This album has received much positive comment and with three Top 20 Charting singles it has placed her as a high profile Independent artist with a bright future. 

“‘Impressed’ probably sums up my thoughts on the whole album – Karen’s song writing, song selection, vocals, along with the musicianship of the excellent studio personnel – were all first class” (Anna Rose, Country Music Capital News Magazine – Sept 1998)
