“Karen Rae's list of credits, speak for themselves. What they do not speak to adequately, in my opinion, is her depth of spiritual practice, her alignment with Spirit and the Truth, which flows through her with such beauty and ease. Her presence and her gift of music will enrich your life and move you deeply, perhaps as in my case unforgettably."

The recent environmental spills and greatly accelerated issues of climate change have deeply moved Karen Rae to write and compose more about one of her most personal concerns, water and the need to take care of our oceans, rivers and lakes worldwide. She lets us know that each of us counts and as her theme song “Just One Person” communicates, it only takes one person to begin to turn the tide.
