Kara Balko

When I am hired, I like to be fully prepared. I communicate exactly what is expected and needed. If that means you hire me to play a certain amount of songs or play for a certain amount of time, I gather all of that information. I have a speaker, mixer, microphones, all cables, instruments, and everything else necessary.

I am very reliable and very organized. I understand planning an event can be stressful so I try to alleviate that stress by staying on top of the game with my line of work for you.

I have been all over the country :) Born and raised in Florida, spent my high school years in Michigan, and spent my college years in Texas. My first degree is in Commercial Music focusing on vocal/piano performance. The second degree I've completed at Texas Tech University was in Human Development and Family Studies -- later to go into Occupational Therapy, where I can use music to benefit the health of others. I love music and I am so excited to be able to use what God has gifted me to help other people!

I have played numerous weddings, I play around town in various locations, I lead worship at a local church, and have traveled across the country in a vocal ensemble with college. I have years of experience playing different venues and parties, and I believe that my level of professionalism and experience will fit your needs.

The only technicality that I require is means to plug my equipment in. If you have equipment that you would prefer me to use, please let me know what it is before hand so I can prepare.
