Update 4/10/2012 – Karla performed LIVE on “The Voice” this Monday (4/9) and Tuesday (4/10).
As awesome as she was, the competition was equally awesome, and in the end, it came down to a difficult decision by coach Adam Levine. Unfortunately, Karla did not advance to the next round, but we are proud of you, Karla, for taking this opportunity and making the most of it!
We are looking forward to a return visit to Lubbock, TX by you and Gabby!
And a special message to Karla from all your fans in Lubbock – You did great, Karla! Hope you took it all in and enjoyed it like you did when you performed your house concert here in Lubbock. We love you and we’re proud of you, Karla!
