A few years ago an online article on Evie stated she
was was Christian music’s first true “pop star" and she really was!
Still, Evie had little use for the privileges of stardom.
Evie once said simply:
“I’d like to be remembered as a girl that raised
her flag to the highest for Christ. No compromising!” How true and
wonderful that is, we should all remeber that and
take that to heart. Evie is absolutely right!
Evie
has delighted millions with her music since the 1970s when she released her
first,
American album in 1974. She is known for many songs, but most loved for, "PASS
IT ON", "GIVE THEM ALL TO JESUS", and "MIRROR". Evie was originally born
in Rahway, New Jersey and is the only American born (within) her family. She
first began her music career at a young age, while visiting Norway with her
family. Aside from releasing many albums with Word Records, she also released a number in the Norwegian language.
(Aaron Pacentine With Evie Karlsson (September 2005)
With the help of a family friend in the 1970s, Evie was booked on a late night Norwegian talk show. She sang three songs and was interviewed. (She was just 15 years old)
While in Scandinavia, Evie was approached by many for her to come and do concerts. It was an amazing experience even though she was still finishing up high school. Evie had her own TV specials in Norway, Holland and Sweden as well.
Many of her songs featured on the albums were released over the years, were written by her husband Pelle Karlsson who she married in 1979. They recorded many songs and several albums together, produced by their ministry, White Field Music. Evie had become one of the most popular Christian artists and one of the first during the 1970s.
In the early 1980s Pelle and Evie Karlsson felt the Lord's leading to join the "SKY ANGEL DOMINION NETWORK". The Lord used them both in a might way for the Lord's glory. While there, they recorded a few other albums. A few years ago the Karlsson Family left SKY ANGEL, and continue to pursue ministry as a family in other areas of music. Evie currently resides with her husband Pelle in Florida. Their two children, Kris and Jenny Karlsson are now out of high school. Jenny is already now married and is a school teacher. Evie and her music is still loved today more then ever, and Evie albums are still being hunted down and collected by her fans. I want to thank Evie, very, very, much for working it out to do this interview. It was a lot of fun and a great experience as well. I had the wonderful privilege of having a very special invitation to a Concert that Evie was able to take part of, in September of 2005.
Aaron Pacentine With Rebecca St. James (September 2005)
She is just a wonderful person and it's amazing even after several years she
hasn't changed that much. If you ever get a chance to meet her, you will really
be able to tell that she loves the Lord. Evie actually came and preformed last
year (2005) in Columbia, South Carolina ! It was a really wonderful experience
and I had the honor of getting to meet her, along with Rebecca St. James as
well. (They were both performing together). Evie still does concerts in Churches
and in other venues and is also still on tour. She currently tours to different
venues with Rebecca St. James in a Mother and Daughter outreach series of
programs they put on called, the "SHE" events.
