Karin Kopp studied bass, vocals and arrangement at the Dick Grove School of Music in Los Angeles.

Besides being DESIGN's female front singer, she is also a great all around musician, playing guitar, flute, keyboards and holding down the important bottom end on her bass guitar.
With her outgoing personality, Karin gets everyone in the audience involved.


Here she is sneaking up on Victor Wooten and Steve Bailey trying to pick up a couple of new bass licks. These guys can really play, go check what 'Victa' is up to by clicking here and Steve Bailey by clicking here
