Episode Details

In season three’s seventh episode, singer-songwriters Katie Phillips and Karen Joy Brown speak with Kim Ketner, Karen’s twin sister. Katie wrangles the two sisters to tease out the story of Kim’s solitary journey into singing and songwriting from obsessing over Chris Cornell’s voice over the car stereo to working at Guitar Showcase and playing in the Cactus Club’s house band. They highlight the miraculous power of developing peer songwriting friendships through Song Salons and songs’ ability to help us evolve as human beings.

Features her original song, Falling Apart in relation to the topic.

IN THE NORTH BAY/SAN FRANCISCO AREA?

Join Katie and Karen at Coffee & Moore in Sebastopol for the Not So Open Mic for women performers (and yeah, that means, all women, and femme trans and nonbinary folks who feel comfy being in “women’s spaces”) of original music and covers from 1:30-3:30pm on the 1st and 3rd Sunday of each month. We want to gather women who have put their creativity on the back burner as well as those who are currently playing out in any capacity, because we believe that songs have the power to transform us regardless of “professional” or “amateur” status.

ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD….

Every Tuesday from 7-8:30 PT, gather with women
