“She has a sweet soprano and accessible stage presence that is made for a cabaret room.” — Cabaret Scenes

“Harkness’ sound on the guitar was sublime.” — Cabaret Scenes

“Oberlin and Harkness approach our hearts slowly, like that oncoming train that seems far away, and then, suddenly and without warning, they take over our senses and our hearts are carried along for an exciting ride.”  JazzMonthly.com

“Karen Oberlin blends the supper-club sass of Ann Hampton Callaway with the pop purity of Doris Day. Never has Oberlin sounded as nakedly beautiful as in this spare, mellow pairing with guitarist Sean Harkness… all winningly cashmere-wrapped.”  — JazzTimes Magazine

“Oberlin interprets lyrics with a depth of understanding that makes each word sound like it was created for just that moment.  Harkness sounds at times like a one-man orchestra.  Oberlin and Harkness were on stage for a bit over an hour, about a fast an hour as one can imagine.  They left the audience realizing the validity of the old saw about time passing too fast when you are having fun.

 “ — Jersey Jazz

“So simpatico are vocalist Karen Oberlin and her sole and soulful musician, guitarist Sean Harkness, that their new CD together,  A Wish, is awash in rich but gentle intercommunicative musical storytelling. We feel them in the moment, listening to each other, supporting and encouraging each other, reacting to each other.

These award-winning stars of the cabaret/jazz intersection are both at the top of their game in this consistently rewarding album of eclectic material.
