Karima Francis
Wherever I Go

Mercury

WE SAY

The first setup release from Karima Francis' second album - The Remedy - is another triumph of exceptional songwriting and unique vocal ability. Already exceeding expectations, Wherever I Go is on the Radio 2 B-list and getting a great reaction from press, with national support coming from Sunday Times Culture, and pieces forthcoming in the Observer and Independent. Karima's festival appearances throughout the summer will include opening the main stage for Paul Simon at Hard Rock Calling, and slots at Secret Garden Party, Belladrum, Boardmasters and Beautiful Days to name a few. Her Flood- (Depeche Mode, U2, PJ Harvey) produced album has now been mixed by Flood and Tom Elmhirst (Adele, Amy Winehouse, Paulo Nutini) and set for release on August 20. Video.

London Gig: May 17, Hoxton Hall N1 // July 15, Hard Rock Calling w/Paul Simon @ Hyde Park W1
