Karen Peck & New River

This group has the anointing of Jesus Christ in such a genuine, humble way. Their voices/music and Karen's songwriting skills are so distinctively emotional "God given". It doesn't mater if they are singing in an auditoriums to thousands of people or a small church of 75 or less. We all know life and the business is political but KPNR are in it to reach the lost. Uplifting and wonderful spiritual service on Sunday!

This was a spirit filled worship service of a full house of people. All three chapters of God’s House of Hope were also there. Karen Peck and New River outdid themselves. Souls were saved and lives were changed. What a blessing it was!

As always it was Awesome the whole group was spectacular. Always enjoy seeing them. Gold City and The Williamsons were good too. But Karen Peck and New River has my heart. Looking foto them coming back to this area and spending Homecoming with them. Praise God for an Awesome Night!

The music was amazing, as always!! The venue said ALL general seating, but we were the 3rd car in the parking lot and when we got in the whole center stage was reserved. Shame on whomever decided this! Bill Bailey??? No sense getting there early if you still have to sit toward the back. Love in Christ, Dottie

This was awesome Karen, Susan & Grant done an awesome job without Keri and Matthew present. They always sing there hearts 💕 out and you ♥️ can feel that feeling while they sing and feel God's presence. Thank you Pickens for bringing them back. Hope they're back real soon.

Seeing Karen and The Group is always Awesome. I have been following her now for 4 years. Everyone is such a joy to talk too. Karen and New River are very different they don't stand behind a table to greet there fans they mingle out and have conversations. There music is very touching. Listening to them I can hear God speak through her songs. If you never heard this Group make sure you plan to attend one. And go up and speak to them. Love ❤️ You All Karen, Susan, Jeri, Matt, Grant, & Ricky. Always Praying For You Guys and Your Travels. I get so excited when I find out yall coming to South Carolina. See yall soon!

This was such an Amazing Awesome night at Temple Baptist Church. One of there best shows I have been to. Had a great time worshipping The Lord with them. Anderson SC was on Fire last night . God was definitely in The House!

Karen Peck and New River are always a blessing! The service pointed everyone to Jesus, realizing that He is the answer to all the needs in our world. What a wonderful source of hope and inspiration for all who were blessed to be in attendance. Thank you!!!

Karen Peck & New River are always awesome!! You can tell which groups are singing for the Glory of God to spread the Gospel message, and which ones are just putting on a show. Karen Peck & New River are always a blessing. I appreciate the fact that Grant has an appreciation and respect for the Hymns of the Faith and sings from his heart. Missed hearing Kari sing but understand the circumstances. It is my hope and prayer that God will continue to bless your ministry.

It was an excellent concert and event. KPNR has gotten better with age. They have some great songs and they put on a professional presentation while presenting The Gospel with song. They are all excellent, led of course by the legendary Karen Gooch. I love the singings at Oakland Baptist Church in Springfield. A beautiful old building and...ha ha ha...they always have great food after! The only slight negative, and not a knock, is BandsinTown had the show at 7:00 PM but it started at 6:00. But KPNR did a few bonus songs sings Karen Gooch knew a few of us got there late. Oh, and I HATED I missed them singing "That's The God I Serve"!!! I think that song is one of the most incredible songs ever written, "I am amazed The God of the universe loves me and knows me by name." If that was the whole song it would be fine. Anyway, great show! I very highly recommend seeing KPNR if they are in your area.

Karen has the ability to make the audience feel special. They do the same concert over and over every night and you'd think it would become routine....but not Karen. The show felt fresh and energetic and very encouraging. Thank you! - DR

Karen Peck and New River were performing as part of a three day event and honestly they weren't the group I was looking the most forward too but they changed that. This night reminded me of what I learned years ago as a college freshman- Karen Peck & New River is one of the best groups in gospel music. She knows how to speak to a crowd and sing right to the heart of the listener. Everybody's going through something and it's good to be reminded one more time that I'd rather go through something with Him. Karen knows how to mix old favorites from hear 30 plus year span as New River with the new more progressive style of the group. My only wish is that every once in a while Mrs. Karen would sit down at the piano and show off her skills as the groups sings along. A few hymns or gospel favorites couldn't be too hard to manage this.

It amazes me that such a little girl can get that much voice volume out to a huge audience. The lyrics she writes are beautifully composed reverent prayers. I wonder if she realizes how many listeners she has brought home to Jesus? God bless Karen, her family, and New River. Her legacy will live on a very long time, and I can’t wait to join her in paradise one day, and hear her fabulous songs performed in the Presence of God in the celestial choir of angels. Keep up the good work, Karen! This performance was a 10 out of 10!!!

Both Carolina/ Karen Peck and New River were outstanding last night. I have to mention the volunteer staff was so kind and overflowing with Hospitality at the R-S Central High School. Definitely a 5 star rating! WTG Everyone! Mister " D "

Had a wonderful time listening to Karen Peck & New River. First time we have seen her live. Had a great time with God's spirit being there for the whole show. She shared some of her personal movements with God during the show and told how some of the songs came to be. Looking forward to seeing her in concert again, whenever we can. I thank God for her voice and family. We will keep her in our prayers asking God to bless her and New River as they travel from one concert to another singing God's praise.

Great show. A little hard to find the park. I was expecting signs on the road. KP&NR are always great. Loved Triumph! Hadabeck had the crowd going and CT Townsend sincerity and tell it like it is preaching lets you know who is in control!

The show was AMAZING!! It was such a wonderful experience and I can’t wait to see Karen Peck and New River again! They’re so anointed and the Holy Spirit shows up when they sing, so yeah I love Karen and her fam!! (excuse my ugly self)❤️😂

This was an Amazing Awesome Concert as always. I always enjoy listening to Karen Peck and New River. The other 2 groups Mylsn Hayes Family and Tribute Quartet done a fantastic job as well. Looking forward to when Karen Peck and New River come back to upper state South Carolina. A Big Thank you goes out to the Life FM making this all possible and thanks to Rock Springs Baptist Church for having in your beautiful church. May God Bless each and everyone. Prayers always gor there travels.

KPNR’s beautiful blue tour bus arrived in Easley SC bringing a bright spot to an otherwise overcast, gloomy afternoon in the UpState. Doom and gloom was hardly the atmosphere inside as folks came from all over to celebrate TheLifeFM’s 7th birthday celebration, and it was a family affair. The Boomers & the Millennials. Beginning with The Mylon Hayes family and concluding with Karen Peck’s own, the Gospel message was communicated through song, enough so that there were brand new professions of faith at the Invitation. We sang happy birthday to Karen (Mar 12), and her husband Ricky (Mar 11), the only thing that could have made it better was cake for everyone. Karen confessed her age, that she was 39.95 plus shipping and handling! She spoke about an anointing, and one could almost feel the healing in the room during Let The Healing Begin, and the very personal Answer Is Jesus. At 39.95, that’s a bargain anytime!

How great to see KPNR again in Monroe, LA. We couldn’t have wished for them to have been any better. I am amazed that after all these years and all the many performances, Karen and the group continue to sing Four Days Late with such SINCERITY and freshness. I have many other favorites of KPNR, but this continues to amaze me. All of The Lord’s blessings to KPNR. Solo Deo Gloria
