My guest is Canadian-born producer and songwriter, Karen Kosowski. Karen has had multiple chart topping productions crossing over from total ear-catching pop to party-driving country music.

She has recently had an American top 40 hit “Somebody To Love Me” with Tyron, and in Canada, multiple hits for the artist Emma-Lee, the #4 Billboard AC hit “It Won’t Be Christmas”, and the Top 20 AC/Top 30 HotAC hit “Worst Enemy”, and for Michelle Treacy the Top 30 HotAC hit “Colours”. In country music, Karen produced the Top 20 hit “Motel Flamingo” for Madeline Merlo and co-wrote Alee’s Billboard Top 20 hit “Only The Strong Survive”.

In 2015, she wrote and produced the music for Pan Am Games medal ceremonies, and has numerous TV/film placements on networks such as HBO Canada, CBS, FX Network, Lifetime Network, NickTeen, Space, the CW, and in feature films like the award-winning thriller “The Scarehouse” and Wangofilms’ action movie “88” (starring Christopher Lloyd) - for which she was nominated in the category of Achievement in Music - Best Original Song in the 2016 Canadian Screen Awards.
