Karilla, a four piece band with Mike Bardo on vocals/guitar, Tom Edwards on bass, Phil Cave on drums, and Charlie Rogers on guitar.

Tom, Phil and Charlie first met in the year 2000 and formed there own "riff driven" band. Then, in the summer of 2003, the band evolved and found a voice in Mike Bardo. Karilla was born...

"The thing that really comes across with Karilla is front-man Mike Bardo, has a very strong voice... His vocals are captain of the whole affair... steering the ship towards some rather Smashing Pumpkins / Soundgarden-esque roots... A damn fine performance." - NME

Shortly after, in the october of 2004, the band toured Southern Germany. R.I.B Promotions announced Karilla as

"the highlight of all the bands from England on the tour".

The band still maintains a large German following. On their return, they continued to gig around the UK, to great acclaim.

Recently, Karilla have been in the studio recording as many tracks as posible, the first single, "Remember Me" along with "Dropdown" and "Come The Hour" have been around for a while, and now finally! we are proud to present 5 brand new tracks!. Karilla will also be featuring on the Essex rocks tour, and the accompanying tour cd which features the mighty "Raggamuffin Mcshannonabob". Look out for them at a town near you aswell as festival slots and tours throughout the year.
