Hailing from Dayton, Ohio, Kara Eknes has been singing professionally across the globe for the past 15 years, performing in large-scale theaters, cruise ships, theme parks, and more.

She is thrilled to be returning to the General Jackson for her 4th season!

After studying Musical Theatre at Bowling Green State University, she was nominated as “Best Female Performer” by the Smoky Mt. Opry for the 2017 IAAPA awards.

Kara is a member of the international female jazz group, “The Satin Dollz”, and has brought the group’s vintage sound to its inaugural Nashville troupe.

Singing her way through recording studios from New York to Los Angeles, Kara has never been happier to land back home here in Music City!
