About Me

•••KARMA BIOG•••

South African award winning singer/songwriter Karma-Ann Swanepoel said farewell to her homeland and adoring fans late November 2003. The celebrated pop chanteuse and former lead singer of HENRY ATE made the move to America to pursue her dream of accessing and introducing her work to a larger audience.

KARMA is a force to be reckoned with. An Indie pop-rock artist, equipped with phenomenal talent, addictive songs and an uncanny ability to captivate every listener. Her sound is reminiscent of Suzanne Vega and Natalie Merchant infused with the pop friendliness of The Cranberries. Without a doubt KARMA’s most powerful quality is the blatant heartache instilled into her writing and performances – an attribute that has won her the accolade of 1 wordsmith in her homeland.

Already the hands down favorite in Florida, KARMA has blown away audiences in Los Angeles (Viper Room, On the Rox, The Gig & The Mint), Atlanta (Eddies Attic), North Carolina (The Soap Box), New York (BB Kings, Mulcahy’s & Luna Lounge), Seattle (Alki Beach Festival) and toured abroad with sold out performances in London and South Africa. KARMA has also shared the stage with Fiction Plane, Scissors for Lefty, G Love and Special Sauce, The Gin Blossoms, Drive Blind and CandleBox.

Her first album DON’T WALK FLY, recorded with Grammy award winning engineer and producer Scott Canto (Shakira, Jon Secada, Nine Inch Nails and Ricky Martin) in 2005, Miami, has taken over the South African charts producing 3 chart topping singles to date.

KARMA has embraced her status as an unsigned artist, exploiting every opportunity and means of self-promotion available to her. She has exceeded 10 000 CD sales independently via her website and at live shows, has been featured on over 200 podcasts internationally, had her album DON’T WALK FLY reviewed and praised in over 50 international publications and built a substantial following and mailing list of adoring fans locally and internationally.

KARMA is currently on tour promoting her 2008 release “even if She tried” co-produced John D. Thomas (Lauryn Hill, Scott Stapp (Creed), P.Diddy, Prince, Missy Elliot, Jamie Foxx). The full length album called “The Riddle” is scheduled for release in July 2008.
