“…be prepared to lose your heart to Jacobsen,
or at the very least, leave singing her lovely, melody-driven songs.” New York Press
Her voice may be familiar to you, and she just might be giving you directions in your car all day every day.
Karen Jacobsen - The GPS Girl - is a Queenslander based in New York for the past nine years. In an unexpected twist in her singing career, Karen was hired for a 50 hour voice over job and her speaking voice is now in GPS systems in millions of cars all over the world giving people directions.
She is "Australian Karen", the Aussie voice, and the most popular download, in the Garmin, Navman, TomTom and Mio GPS systems worldwide.
In demand as a Singer, Voice Over Artist, Professional Speaker and Television Presenter, Karen is currently developing her TV show “Travel the World with The GPS Girl.”
When Karen Jacobsen walks on stage you know she belongs there, and then you hear that "never-seen-a-cigarette-in-her-life-voice". Her songs are catchy, melodic, timeless pop, kind of like Billy Joel would sing if he were a tall, blonde Australian woman.
Karen has shared the stage with Norah Jones, Christopher Cross, Jars of Clay, Three Dog Night, Deborah Cox, Cyndi Lauper, Spyro Gyra and her songs have been heard on Dawson's Creek and NBC's Passions. Her latest album “Melting Moments” is available exclusively in ABC Shops and on
iTunes.
