In 1996 Karen began work on her debut solo album, letting her voice shine over a broad range of songs with collaborations with some of Scotland's finest musicians. singer-songwriter James Grant contributes four songs including the radio hit 'There's Always Sunday, and other highlights include a stunning version of Sandy Denny's 'One More Chance' and a breathtaking Gaelic song 'Mi ie M''Uilinn' performed live in the studio with an exquisite sax solo from Tommy Smith.
