Hailing from cosmopolitan London, the music of Karma Sheen merges Hindustani classical, fuzzy 60s rock a la Jimi Hendrix, and Sufi inspired lyricism, deeply rooted in cultural heritage.

Spearheaded by Sameer Khan, who is formally trained by a 600-year-old lineage of musicians from modern-day Pakistan, Karma Sheen brings timeless traditions to new realms, captivating audiences along the way.

Through embracing the Hindustani format while drinking from retro aesthetics and re-signifying it all with the avantgardism of neo-psychedelia, they create something both recognisable and new. It is guaranteed you will not find another band who sound like Karma Sheen.

Their debut self titled album was released in 2023, followed by a national UK tour bookended by a triumphant headline home-coming sold out show in London’s Two Palms, Hackney.

Known for their energetic, transcendent and captivating live shows, fuelled by a plethora of electrified folk instruments, the band capture the hearts and imaginations to all they perform for.

Previous support slots for the band include Yin Yin, Say She She, W.I.T.C.H., Os Mutantes, Dur Dur Band, Sarathy Korwar, Marcos Valle, Derya Yildrim and more, with headline sold out shows at prestigious London venues The Lexington, Two Palms Hackney and Rich Mix.

The band have also ventured overseas, with performances at Pro Weekend Festival, Valencia, and shows in Amsterdam & Brussels.

Previous festival performances include Blue Dot Festival, Shambala & Boomtown, The Great Escape, Brighton Psych Festival and more.

Karma Sheen are currently writing music for their next record, with upcoming festival appearances at Wilderness Festival, Camp Bestival, Manchester Psych Festival and more.

Radio and press support has come from the likes of BBC 6Music & NTS Radio, and Wipeout Magazine championed by the likes of Nabihah Iqbal, with cultural collaborations with Domination Magazine and The Cockney Sikh.
