Karlien van Jaarsveld is the eldest of three children. She is the eldest sister of the already well-known Bobby van Jaarsveld. She is not new to the music industry.
Three years ago Karlien started performing with Bobby as one of his guitarists and backing vocalist. She also performed a duet with Bobby on his latest album. Two years ago Karlien decided to pursue her own career, and started a rock band - REVOLUSIE. She was both the founder and lead singer of the group. Rock music has always been in her blood and she considers the two years spent with REVOLUSIE as one of her best educational experiences.

Karlien van Jaarsveld is die oudste van 3 kinders. Sy is die ouer suster van die reeds bekende Bobby van Jaarsveld. Karlien is nie ‘n nuwe gesig in die musiekbedryf nie.
Sy het 3 jaar gelede begin om saam met Bobby op te tree as sy kitaarspeler en backing vocalist. Sy het ook ‘n duet saam met Bobby gedoen op sy eerste album. Karlien het so 2 jaar gelede besluit om haar eie ding te doen en het toe ‘n rockband gestig, REVOLUSIE. Sy was dus die stigter en hoofsanger van die groep, REVOLUSIE. Rockmusiek was maar altyd in haar bloed en sy het die 2 jaar saam met REVOLUSIE beskou as een van die beste leerskole ooit.
Karlien het egter in Oktober 2008 besluit om solo te gaan met haar loopbaan en sy het REVOLUSIE verlaat.
Johan Vorster Songs het Karlien as kunstenaar ingeneem. Karlien se album “Jakkals Trou Met Wolf Se Vrou” is uitgereik. Twee videos is ook geskiet van “Beter as Liefde” en “Jakkals Trou met Wolf se Vrou”. Karlien se album is alreeds vir ‘n hele paar weke onder die Top 5 verkopers op die DKNT ranglys. Die album se verkope het ook Platinum Status bereik.
