The Karma Effect - Friday 26th February
When The Karma Effect was quietly born in the pandemic, vocalist Henry Gottelier could hear in his head how he wanted the project to sound. Henry terms the band's modus operandi "modern vintage", a desire to polish up the retro sounds they were raised on into a gleaming, modern product instead of trying to rehash or recycle them, and certainly without falling into the trap of pastiche. Regardless, their sights are set higher, and in possession of what they believe are their strongest songs yet, they're hungrier to chase their goals than ever.
Although some line-up changes occurred in the background (which sees Nathan Keevil join them on bass, Alan Taylor on drums, and Tom Pitt on keys) the newly assembled line-up convened at The Hive Rooms, in the locale of Gatwick Airport, to nail down what would become 'Cruel Intentions' in July 2025.
This is a ticketed event.
