A sophisticated jazz sound through and through... these Scripture beatniks venture successfully into the various perimeters of vocal and instrumental jazz embellished with a
touch of torchy blues. An international project encompassing English, Hebrew and Spanish, the Karen Johns Band is comprised of some of Nashville's best session players and writers, as well as musicians and writers from Canada, Venezuela, and Costa Rica. Karen and James Johns push the envelope in demonstration of their amazing ability to write, arrange, perform, and produce yet another diverse style and genre of music, orchestrating a band of great talent including saxophonist Jim Hoke (multi-instrumentalist
for Mark Knopfler, Alan Jackson, Billy Joel, Don Henley, Emmylou Harris, NRBQ, and more); keyboard player Mark Horwitz; Mark Niemiec (2001 Grammy nominee); Canadian
flute player Vania Levans; bass player Luis Espailla(Atlantic Records); bass player Frank Fish;guitarist/praise leader Brian Reed; acoustic percussionist and pastor Laurence Fernandez (Costa Rica/Canada); and other excellent artisans...(log on to www.Isaiah12Records.com or www.KarenJohnsBand.com for an extensive biography and
