‘Verandah Fridays’ is the love child of my good friend Mim O’Grady and I. 

Friends since the tender age of thirteen, we share a love of harmony and the pure joy of singing. We regularly nourish our souls making beautiful music on Mim’s verandah in the northern rivers sometimes competing with the birds in her garden. 

We've built a repertoire of great songs; an eclectic mix of classic and contemporary pop, indie Oz, folk, a little jazz in there for me as well as old and new original tunes. Dave Shannon joined after 2020 and his talent on the double bass added another dimension to our music. In 2025, Peter Slattery brought his clever listening ears and percussion skills to our group and we perform at various venues and markets and have loads of fun sharing our music with others and living the dream. 

Contact Karen to book a show.  Verandah Fridays can perform as a duo, trio or full band.
