Troublekarmaflow
TroubleKarmaFlow (TKF) are a three-piece roots band from Brisbane who have been carving up the local scene since 2008. Having played the Caxton St Food & Wine Festival, Greenfest & opening for Iconic Aussie rock band, GANGgajang in 2009, TKF have recently recorded a live demo & continue to gig throughout South East QLD & beyond.
"TroubleKarmaFlow are the antithesis to auto tuned pretenders and lip-synching divas. Allowing the music to prove itself, the roots, folk, funk and blues fusion comes across rich, honest and powerful. " (Nate Harmon -Mayan Fox, 2010)
TKF blend the soulful lyrics of lead singer Ben "Trouble" Matheson with the driving beats of drummer, Kurt Brumley & the smooth orchsetral sounds of multi-instrumentalist & Contemporary Classical Composer, Nicole Murphy. Inspired by a range of artists from the likes of Ben Harper to Dave Matthews, TKF have created a sound all of their own & have a live show to match the raw energy you hear in their music & lyrics.
