Karney – Better EP CD

Anna Karney has been making great music for many years, performing across the US and collaborating with many talented and notable artists. Now with her band KARNEY she is set to release a new EP titled BETTER, a stunning collection of original songs together with a remix and a cover of “Ramble On,” one of Karney’s favorite Led Zeppelin songs. 

Keeping her mind on social justice and positive messages, Anna Karney’s lyrical content offers a sardonic and sometimes straightforward approach to many of the issues facing people today, with a message of hope resonating throughout every song she writes. How can a social justice songwriter stay silent during these trying times? The answer is, she can’t. Despite this, the title song “Better” shifts focus to the positive and offers the listener an uplifting message of hope and courage.
