New Website, Upcoming Show 8/22!

We are excited to launch our brand new website created by Nathaniel Kraft!  The old site was innovative and fun, but the new design will allow us to easily keep the website up to date.  We’ve posted a couple new items to the Store section as well as new Video links.  Take a look around and feel free to add comments!

It’s been a quiet year so far for Karmella’s Game but quite the opposite for us individually!  Between crazy school semesters and weddings it’s been a super busy year.  Mandy got married in July and Aaron is getting married next month!  In celebration of Aaron and Amy’s wedding, we are playing a show at the Sidebar on Sunday, August 22nd.  Check out the Shows section for more details!

Some Bad News: Show Canceled

So we’ve got bad news – our Tuesday show in Cincinnati was canceled due to the house getting shut down earlier this week. However, it turns out we have much bigger problems. The van didn’t make it out of Baltimore without having troubles so we stopped to get it checked out before driving 8 hours to Knoxville. The problem ended up being with the transmission which is going to be too expensive for us to even get it looked at much less fixed. It seems as if the KG church bus is dead.

The good news is we’re going to borrow our dear friend Amy’s minivan and start what’s left of the tour this Wednesday in Nashville. We’re going to borrow equipment from other bands and make it work! We’re happy to not have to cancel all together and look forward to seeing some friends this week!

New Album in Post-Production

The CD is on its way to being pressed! Please join us at the release show, July 3rd at the Ottobar.  Tour dates will be posted soon. So keep checking in!

Show at The Ottobar & Insuborination Fest

We just got a last minute show at The Ottobar this coming Monday with our good friends Sybris from Chicago.  Since it’s a weeknight we’ll make it worth your while and will be playing a brand new song.  Hope to see you there!

Next weekend is Insubordination Fest and we’re playing Saturday afternoon at Sonar.  If you like 90’s style pop punk with some other fun bands mixed in between (like us!), it is the place to be in Baltimore this weekend!  The fest starts Thursday at The Recher Theatre, continues Friday at The Ottobar, and ends on Sat at Sonar.  Be sure to check out the full schedule because there are a ton of awesome bands.

And lastly, we are finishing our last set of demos and will start recording the album on July 14. We’ll be starting with drums at Magpie Cage Studios so stayed tuned!

Wedding & Reception Show

Our lovely Katie and dear friend Adam from Avec are getting married this weekend!  To celebrate we’re going to have a “reception show” on Sunday at The Metro Gallery.  It’s in part an opportunity for family who usually don’t see Katie & Adam’s band to see them play.  It’s also a party for our friends and fans who are unable to make the wedding/real reception, so anyone is more than welcome to come!  Our good friends Second Saturday will be in town for the wedding so they’ll be playing the show too!  It’s going to be a great time – hope to see you there!

Thanks!

Big thanks to everyone who came out to our shows throughout the US this past month and back home at Fletcher’s last Friday.  Now we’re going to focus on finishing songs for our new album that we plan to begin recording in July.  We’ve also got a few shows lined up for May and June so check out our myspace or the shows page for details.
