Creating one of our all time favourite albums The Remedy, Karima Francis has a remarkable catalogue that has so far fallen short of the global recognition it deserves. Likened to sensational artists such as Tracy Chapman, Karima has a pure and immutable connection to her music that is unrivaled in today's era.
With raw lyrics, The Remedy tells delicate stories born straight from the soul, an intricate display of emotion that invites even the most distant listener into her world. Even if you're lacking first hand experience of the trials and tribulations depicted in Karima's lyrics, she has a gift that infiltrates emotions and ushers a cocktail of deep feelings your way.
Karima is currently out on the road with Skunk Anansie, supporting them on their first ever European Acoustic Tour - An emotion fest it must have been! Using the opportunity to play around with some new music, French Fans were treated to a demo of new song Believe In Love. Beautifully defined it was performed with the understated virtuosity that is fast becoming the trademark of Karima's live performances, helping to establish her place among the best.
Skunk Anansie round off our dream tour with one UK date at the Hackney Empire in London. With classic tracks from the headliners such as Weak, Hedonism and Brazen being paired with the alluring sounds of Karima, the night is not to be missed!
