Karen Knowles presents Songs & Stories of Australia, a unique concert celebrating the country's beloved music. This event is dedicated to connecting with the land called home and features songs from Judith Durham, Olivia Newton-John, Archie Roach, and other cherished artists.
With gratitude, Karen sings for and with Australian audiences, promoting unity among all people and creation. This is an opportunity to experience Karen's music live, so book early for this one-night-only event. Karen, who toured with The Seekers as their lead singer in the early 1990s, has sung Olivia's music since her early teens on television.
Through her work with reconciliation since the 1990s, Karen has performed "I Am Australian" at national events and was deeply moved by Archie Roach's musical expression of connection to the country. Inspired songs written during her travels will be part of this performance (featured on Solid Ground and Sanctuary).
Karen will perform a diverse range of curated songs including the classic "I Honestly Love You," the nostalgic "I'll Never Find Another You," the whimsical "Morningtown Ride," the iconic "Carnival Is Over," the ethereal "Under the Milky Way Tonight," Archie Roach's "Native Born" and "One Song," and her own heartfelt "Belong."
This concert is an opportunity to celebrate the gift of being Australian while honoring iconic artists who have created music that forms the soundtrack of life.
