Karla Bonoff Live





“For so many of us, a new Karla Bonoff album is like hearing from an old friend you’ve
missed and think of often. Her songs are comforting, familiar and timeless,and make us feel
a part of them just by singing along. This collection will make her fans mighty happy.”

...this live set feels like a precious gift from a lost friend.

Karla Bonoff Live is a two-CD set containing 21 songs, including some of Bonoff's most popular material plus two new compositions. All but one were recorded at a small club in Santa Barbara with Bonoff's regular touring band, giving it an warm, intimate feel. This is Karla's first live album and the songs she performs span her entire career - from her first album through to the present.

She's backed by her regular touring band, including long time friend and musical associate Kenny Edwards and noted guitarist Nina Gerber. That trio has played hundreds of shows together, throughout America and Japan. They are joined by former Bryndle percussionist Scott Babcock on these recordings.

Karla Bonoff has recorded and released four solo albums as well as a "Best Of" collection and three albums with Bryndle. So why a live album now? "I have been playing so long and have never really documented what we do." Karla said recently. "I think many of these songs have improved with age and I felt like it was finally time to do that. For fans who have never heard me live, I think this will be kind of interesting for them."

Throughout her career, Bonoff has continued to tour extensively, playing sold-out shows around the world. She's scheduled a slate of dates in support of Karla Bonoff Live that will showcase her remarkable talent. Her 2008 schedule is listed here - dates are always being added.

For a limited time, you can download a copy of "Someone To Lay Down Beside Me" from this recording.

"Karla Bonoff Live" can be ordered at the Karla Bonoff Store. All CDs sold at the store will be autographed by Karla.
