The Middle East, May of 2007, to opening multiple sold out shows for country music superstar Tim McGraw in August 2015 at the Mile One Stadium in St. Johns, NL, Pilgrim’s experience as a performer knows no boundaries.

In 2023, Pilgrim put together her first ever full band featuring some of Newfoundland and Labrador’s most accomplished musicians. ‘Karla Pilgrim and The Mayflowers’ are high energy and bring a world class country show to her audience. With the buzz around Karla releasing her first solo project in 15 years and shows quickly filling her calendar, it seems this next step in her musical journey is just what her followers have been waiting for. 

While Pilgrim is beyond enthusiastic to be fronting a band for the first time, she will still be active in writing, producing and performing with Jackie Sullivan – her duo partner of over 24 years and as one third of Country Vocal Trio LadyLike. Karla is also a member of The Spirit of Newfoundland Productions and is currently starring in critically acclaimed show ‘Nashville Nights’. Pilgrim is a proud mom of three beautiful babies who provide enough inspiration to last a lifetime.
