Wes Montgomery and Thelonlius Monk walk into Pat Metheny's club where Carlos Santana is jamming with John McLaughlin. They all take a shot of estrogen. Voila. Presenting Karen Segal.

Originally from Boston, Massachusetts and based in San Francisco, Karen is better known for her work as a bassist with Marilyn Mazur (Miles Davis) and Suzanne Fasteau (Bill Evans) as a teenager in Copenhagen and as a co-founder and guitarist with the acid jazz band "Red Clay" with Davis Brown (Brazzaville, Beck) in Los Angeles during the 1990's. After a several year break following the birth of her daughter, Karen returns to the music scene with this captivating display of original eclectic compositions.

Modern jazz meets rock and folk to make this album both complex and accessible.

Karen Segal's first album of original music is a journey into soul searching emotions. Unexpected twists, dissonant chords, and unresolved phrases combine to create beautiful cohesive compositions.
The intimate interplay between between Karen's luscious guitar tone and understated style together with Emerson Cardenas on basses and Alan Hall on drums is truly musical magic. Modern jazz meets rock and folk to make this album both complex and accessible.
