    I love the cd- its lovely! I especially love the last song, with your laughter in it :) It makes me laugh & smile with you each time, you can hear the authenticity in your voice. Thanks Jason and Karen- it was awesome to record with you all & I'm glad it turned out so well. Lay Me Down has a lovely arrangement-- just wish I could take credit for it!
    Keep in touch & have a festive season ahead!

thanks for listening!

The Augusta trio fuses acoustic simplicity with rhythmic and melodic play to create their folk-jazz sound. Karen Augusta is a musician of three-octave vocals and fluid guitar, piano, and flute fingers. Jason Dionne (bass) and Allan Dionne (drums) have collaborated with Karen on three recordings, with each player bringing a distinct and dynamic voice to this trio’s performances.

Intelligent songs with highly personal incisiveness.
Tom Harrison, The Province

What a treat to be moved and inspired by a live performance. Augusta's synergy and musicality stirred me emotionally, as true art should do.
Daniel Adair, Martone, Nickelback
