VANCOUVER: Karen-Lee Batten, Canada's, fastest rising independent
female artist has proven that when a door closes a window opens, all
you have to do is find the "YES". Thursday April 24th marks the
official launch date of Karen-Lee's debut video "Hearts On The Run" on
CMT Canada. Independently filmed and funded, Karen-Lee along with good
friend Trevor McWhinney, (producer, Needlefish Films), and Steve A.
Adelson, (Director, The (2) Headed Monster), filmed the 2-day shoot in
some of the BC's most beautiful coastal areas: Kitz Beach, North
Vancouver and Spanish Banks. Shot July of Last year, Karen-Lee's debut
video captures not only the beauty and talent she holds in a promising
career, but expresses her time, dedication and energy she puts into
every project. " It has been such an amazing and humbling experience.
To have this project come together and be so well accepted by CMT,
radio and the fans it is unbelievable", says Karen-Lee. "As an
independent artist there tends to be some hoops and red tape you have
to go through, but nothing drives me more then achieving my goals. I
wanted to show how much I appreciate having everyone's help and
support, so made the trip out to CMT and hand delivered the video. I
guess this just proves that being stubbornness isn't all bad." "Thanks
to all my family, friends and fans, for continually supporting,
believing and being apart my journey. This video is the best way I
know how to show my appreciation." commented Karen-Lee. Karren-Lee has
