Power und Beauty began as an unintentional adventure through the mystical fields of harmonious sisterly collaboration. Karli and Caroline who had been singing together for four years joined up with Anna and Sarah of Olive Green. They started with a few songs Karli had written and a few from Anna. There was an effortless blending of voices and hearts. To these four musical women, nothing could be more powerful or beautiful than purely joined female voices in harmony and melody. Vanity aside, Power und Beauty is what they named this new project.

With choral experience, piano lessons, years of performance and a love for writing, the girls brought unique talents to the table. Sarah Moyer pioneered the use of a vegetable steamer as percussion. Caroline Fowler explored the multi-faceted uses of the battery powered Yamaha keyboard while playing the tambourine. Anna Collins-Wakeman mastered the duel glockenspiel and shaker technique. Karli Fairbanks reinvented the infamous accordion waltz. All multi-tasking with back and forth melody and harmonies, each one had a big task to conquer.

Fantastical childish musicality dancing together in unity with angelic immortal feminine vocals. All in front of a Bavarian backdrop, clothed in knee high socks and suspenders. Power und Beauty had fatefully and whimsically prepared themselves to conquer the world.
