FINALLY,
A NEW BAND WHO PLAYS THE KIND OF HARD ROCK THAT PEOPLE ARE
ALMOST DYING OF STARVATION FOR……............ WELCOME TO THE
SOUND OF KING KARMA!
When you think
back on classic, defining rock & roll moments, from a Jimmy
Page riff to a soul-piercing Bon Scott scream, virtually all of
them are larger-than-life, impossible to ignore.
That kind of
scope is evident throughout the self-titled debut CD by KING
KARMA, a band clearly passionate about creating those kinds of
moments.
"It's not
hard to figure out what we were listening to coming up, so
anything we create will always be a reflection of that. But, what
we create, we create honestly and we try to take it to the next
level, respectfully."
Shaun Williamson - Lead
Singer for King Karma
Based out of
Vancouver, Canada KING KARMA garnered the attention of famed
producer Jimmy Johnson and Steve Melton (Lynyrd Skynyrd, Rolling
Stones, Cry Of Love), who flew the boys to Muscle Shoals and
recorded the quartet’s awe-inspiring debut. Combining the
astounding talents of vocalist Shaun Williamson from Tallahassee,
Florida and Canadians, Markus Wolfe on guitar, bassist Todd
Ronning and drummer Rick Fedyk. KING KARMA’s debut has received
serious airplay all over the Internet, generating rave reviews and
winning over new fans throughout the world. WiTR listed the
band’s disc in the top ten best CD releases of 2003. Their song
"Into The Everlast" was voted "Track of the
Day" over 6,000 other hard rock hopefuls on Garageband.com.
The band has recently signed with Z Records, a UK Label, who are
very excited about KING KARMA’s prospects in the European
market. The European release is slated for May 10th.
The buzz on the band is growing fast and appears to have no
borders or boundaries. All this and KING KARMA still remains an
Independent Artist in North America. It seems odd that a band of
the clear ability of KING KARMA remain as yet without a deal in
the USA, but surely that oversight should be rectified soon.
As of late, the
band has been playing live showcases close to home, leaving a
trail of blown away fans in their wake, while gearing up for that
inevitable next step to world wide touring. Independent sales of
their debut CD have been escalating as news of the band continues
to spread. The road ahead for the band is becoming clearer with
each passing day, leaving all those surrounding them with a
feeling of excitement and anticipation of what’s to come!
