KARI is London based singer-songwriter who has transcended from her acoustic roots into cosmic experimentation. Her unique approach to songwriting evokes a deeply personal but universal sound that has connected with audiences worldwide.
Having already been booked events such as BBC Big Weekend, Isle Of Wight, Opener Festival and Waves Vienna, Kari shapes her deep tracks into vivid yet intimate live shows.
Kari already has 3 studio albums in her catalogue with 1.7 million views of her single ‘Hurry Up’ , many features and live sessions at BBC Introducing.
Her inspirations are artists like Bjork, Fever Ray, Sigur Ros, Nikki And The Dove, JFDR and Sylvan Esso.
“Her ethereal vocals wash over layers of synths, strings and pulsating bass, landing somewhere between M83 and Sigur Ros.”
— Culture Villain
“KARI is an outstanding composer and performer, with bags of talent. Her music transcends boundaries and crosses genres, surely she is destined for international success. When KARI played live in session on my show, it was clear that I was in the presence of greatness. In other-words KARI is one to watch.”
— Alan Raw, BBC Introducing
“Kari has a particular flair for creating familiar yet otherworldly music through her desire for experimentation and delicate attention to detail. Her music combines her abstract nature with compelling electronics creating a unique blend of tribal electronica and intelligent pop.”
— Bibliotek
“Through angelic vocals, sonic complexity and a desire for experimentation, KARI taps into the sublime. She achieves something cosmic with her musical self-fashioning, forging a globetrotting sound that appeals to a universal audience”
