A potent blend of head swimming dissonance and serotonin inducing hooks, Bigkarma arrive with an aura of menace and melody. Marrying the desert heat of classic americana with the grey skies of Essex and Kent, this is a band who create a world of their own like few others.
Answering the question, ‘What is Bigkarma’? Front man Thomas Reynolds replies ‘Is the unknown, the disjointed, the unhinged. The parts of yourself you deny. embracing chaos and flirting with the strange’.
A band with true vision is a special thing, especially when it aligns with the vision of both producer and label: ‘We want to make the ‘odd’ major league. Bring mystery back to the genre, to make music bigger then ourselves’.
Formed in 2020, brothers Gary and Wayne Summers join Thomas Reynolds to complete the power trio. Inspired by a veritable encyclopaedia of acts, Bigkarma took the unusual approach of shaping their sound in the studio ahead of any performance or experience of ’hitting the road’ as a band.
The results are an exciting collision of familiar guitar band dynamics married to pulsing and breathing atmospherics that add a sense of depth and nuance to the bands sound.
