Update: Karla has been in Nashville to create songs for her new upcoming Blues / Pop CD titled, Totally Gone 

Radiating a real warmth from her unique, low-toned vocals, the  latest 2013 Spring CD release is the perfect vibe between mellow blues and organic pop. The words will just keep getting deeper under your skin with every song you hear.

The song-writing for her forthcoming third CD is nothing close to sweet as she describes her auto-biographical songs as "opening my heart,  spilling my difficult past out on the table, and waiting to see people's reaction. I used to be what I would call a beautiful failure. My greatest influences are Nina Simone and Bettye Lavette because their songs tell a story and shake my soul."

Bauer continues to redefine the boundaries as an independent music artist being featured on Pandora Radio and on the playlists of many radio stations world-wide.

Bauer wrote an all original Christmas CD titled, Hope is Alive ranking #1 on the 2013 ReverbNation charts. Her award-winning song Always from the CD,When Your Eyes Open, will be featured this year on the soundtrack for the film, Bad Neighborhood. Bauer also played the role as "Julie" in the film.

Traditionally it's difficult for independent music artists to get into major retail stores like Best Buy, Hastings Entertainment, and Barnes and Noble. But the retail giants welcomed her music and many stores  invited her to perform during the holiday season to help promote her Christmas CD during her “Hope is Alive” tour.

Bauer's music is a lot like her personality – not shy. The passion she expresses as a vocalist and songwriter are equal to her desire to bring her music and her message to the world.
