Karin Park
Superworldunknown

Sony (Sweden)

WE SAY

No soundclip. We first wrote and raved about Karin Park over a year ago, acting on a tip off from Dave Wibberley. Now there's a track you can hear and mighty fine it is too. Karin Park are a five piece, named after their lead singer, a Swedish girl who met the rest of the band in Norway's culturally vibrant city of Bergen. A powerful singer delivering powerful hooks. Hear it here.
