Bio / Background
Karen Gibson Roc is an astonishment. This Brooklyn-based (by way of Jamaica and Canada) poet and musician is fierce and fearless. A musical chameleon (she calls herself a "poetist" or poetic vocalist), she combines elements of rap, downtown-diva poetry slamming, and an urgent backing band called Fluid that lays down beats for her that range from jazzy to soulful to the rock edge that the hip-hop pioneers used to such great advantage. Karen Gibson Roc is so committed to what she is doing, she even dreams in rhyme!
Styling herself a poetist, the performer celebrates the creative spirit in front of her empathetic band, Fluid.
She is absolutely weightless, soaring and floating above the checks and balances that keep most of us secured to the weighty surface of this rolling ball we find ourselves assigned to. She is unafraid, not worried about her looks, not needing fame, and in the memorable words of one of her songs not even needing to be sane, all of the time.
