As seasoned veteran musicians, we know that our appearance can have an impact on your event. We look professional and we act professional! We have our own full sound and light system, perfect for most venues, and we understand how to balance volume to the needs of the event. If our ever expanding song list doesn't have your favorite, let us know and we will add it for your event.

Karen has been a fixture in the Norman music scene, performing live music for longer than she cares to admit. She is an accomplished pianist and keyboard player and directs all of the vocal arrangements for Some Other Moon. She has a degree in music composition and a degree in Nursing. Karen can sing and play at the same time while understanding how that works at an anatomical level. Also accomplished in business, Karen founded, owns and operates a regional home care-based company.

Bob Vahlberg – Harmony Vocals / Elec & Acoustic Guitar
Bob has been performing music for more than 25 years and has been playing along side Karen for the last 20. Bob is an accomplished guitarist, playing both electric and acoustic guitar, covering a range of styles. In addition to guitar, Bob excels in strategic business development and holds an MBA. He is the logistical director for Some Other Moon and knows where the band is supposed to be long in advance of Karen and the other members even knowing where they are….
