Karen Ann Hunter could have coined the phrase \u201cPaying my Dues.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For over 50 years and from the age of 17 her life has been filled with music and artistic endeavors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2007 Karen married renowned guitar player Steve Hunter (Peter Gabriel, Lou Reed, Alice Cooper) and moved to the USA. Regarding her singing career as over and now very happily married it was her husband that encouraged more writing and recording. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
