From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Karen Parry is a dance vocalist who has featured on a number of European hits in the 2000s. Parry featured with Flip & Fill on chart hit "Shooting Star" in 2002, originally recorded by happy hardcore act Bang! in 1998. This reached number 3 in the UK. She featured with Flip & Fill on "Discoland" in 2004, orginally a happy hardcore track by Tiny Tot. This reached number 11 in the UK. She featured on Pascal's remake of "I Think We're Alone Now", a cover of the 1960s classic by Tommy James & the Shondells (later covered in the 1980s by Tiffany), reaching UK #23 in 2002.

Karen is signed to AATW , and she regularly features on the Clubland album series. As well as her released material, she recorded a cover of Irene Cara's Flashdance for the Clubland III album (2003). She collaborated with Pascal again on "This Will Be (The Best Days Of Our Lives)" which featured on Clubland 4 (2003).

Both "Flashdance" and "This Will Be" were released on promo only with their remixes, and in 2007 were available as digital downloads on iTunes under the mispelt artist name 'Karren Parry'.

After the chart success of Discoland in 2004, she collaborated with the Dance Assassins (DJ Insy & Matt Troll) on "Here I Am", a re-work of a happy hardcore anthem. This was followed in 2005 by "Sail Away"

She has since been recording as a solo artist with Flip & Fill (Mark Hall & Graham Turner)as her producers. She recorded a version of "Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now)" by Phil Collins in 2006. Her latest track is "I'm In Heaven" (2007) which was originally a European chart hit by ATC in 2003.

In 2008 she toured the UK with Flip & Fill on the Clubland Arena Tour which featured other artists such as Scooter, and Cascada.
