Hi! I am Larkn (Kristen Mercado. I came to the Ann Arbor area after Laryngeal acid reflux halted my Los Angeles music career ambitions. Little did I know that the life-changing experience would teach me about what was most important to me: my health.
Since a young age, I was entertaining babysitters, bus riders and school auditoriums, starring in my high school's musical theatre productions of Annie Oakley and Once Upon A Mattress, where my role as Lady Larken, inspired my artist name, Larkn.
From my range of experiences from learning classical piano as a child to training at Berklee College of Music to years spent as a solo, entrepreneurial artist in Los Angeles, I amassed a wealth of knowledge in the area of creating and marketing music that I am passionate to pass down through my growing Ann Arbor-based record label, Better From Here Music.
Interested in booking Larkn for your podcast, radio program, tour, venue, restaurant, festival or event?
