  • Bio

    Joseph Macwan...... and his band 'Out of Karma are one of the UK's most exciting and unique contemporary musical talents. Their sound, whilst difficult to define, will suck you straight in. Joseph is a songwriter who sings with an amazing vocal style, that will pierce you and then wrap you up in velvet! Chopping the guitar with mesmerising songs the melodies and lyrics will transport you to an enraptured consciousness. The songs speak of Love, Revolution, The conservations of War, Freedom, and GOD. You have not heard anything like it. It is unique. .... ....The music has gravity and the songs reflect the spirituality and life at the centre of the music. .... ....Influences on the ......Joseph Macwan...... musical style are many and far reaching from Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Marvin Gaye, Udit Narayan, Mohammad Rafi and Lata Mangeshkar, Ben Harper, and Rakesh Parmar to name but a few. .... ....The band represents the all encompassing "Out of Karma" experience. The rhythm section of Malcolm D 'sa on drums and Jacob Saintjames on bass providing the backbone to the music the crazy guitar licks of Chris Topham and the percussive nuances of Ameer H. Hosseinbucus aka BongoMan and Phil Garrett on Keyboard and saxophone, the eclectic souls have united to form a living whole. The fan base is growing all the time. From across the midlands and as far a field as Trinidad and Tobago, and New Zealand. The music is played on BBC radio, as well as a succession of other independent radio stations throughout the UK, Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean. ......Joseph Macwan...... has performed at various venues across the UK, including the Hard Rock Cafe, Borderline, The Bar Fly, Regents Park, and Cafe de Paris. .... ..........Joseph Macwan...... and his band are set to release their forthcoming Album '15 after 3'. They have appearred on the new series of Sky TV's live music show The Headliners, performing the single Hero. They are currently in the studio and have just completed their new Album '15 after 3'...... ......... '... Like a bullet you pierce my armour, then your love it lifts me Out of Karma...'

        TODAY'S THOUGHT IS FROM MILES DAVIS ...

        "Sometimes you have to play a long time to be able to play like yourself."

        "I don't care if a dude is purple with green breath as long as he can swing."

        "Do not fear mistakes, there are none."

        "Don't play what's there, play what's not there."

        “It's always been a gift with me, hearing music the way I do. I don't know where it comes from, it's just there and I don't question it.”

        ~ Miles Davis

        My Dear Friend Trishanne,

        “TIME is FREE, but it's PRICELESS.

        You can't OWN it, but you can USE it.

        You can't KEEP it, but you can SPEND it.

        ONCE YOU'VE LOST IT

        you can NEVER GET IT BACK.”

        ~ Harvey MacKay
