Some of Karma's Miami fans enjoying the band's multi-genre set |
This
past weekend the energy and excitement of Caribbean vibrations invaded the
South Florida city of Miami. Being the last major stop on the annual Carnival
calendar, hundreds of partygoers, entertainers and event promoters enjoyed the
Columbus weekend in fine style. Not to be left out of the action, Ravi B, Nisha
B and the band Karma brought Chutney-Soca flavour to many of Miami’s main
events.
Karma, which has been on
a steady roll with several high profile regional and international appearances
and recently copped the award for ‘Over All Soca Chutney Band of the Year’ at
the 2012 International Soca Awards graced the stages of top Miami Carnival
events such as Girl, Power, R.AV.E. and the W Fete.

Despite still recovering from leg surgery, the queen bee of Karma brought the
bacchanal with her powerful renditions of Chutney, Soca, Hip-Hop and Dance
music. As the event’s only Chutney-Soca entertainer, she gracefully held her
own on a cast which included Barbados’ Alison Hinds and Machel Montano HD.
Karma’s Ravi B also made
waves and excited audiences with his delivery of multiple music genres at the
Saturday night staple, R.A.V.E. (Real Artist Vibe Experience) and ignited the
popular South Beach strip as he took to the stage at the well known
establishment Mangos alongside Patrice Roberts, Rupee, Skinny Fabulous, Swappi,
TC and Shal Marshal.
Most notably, Nisha and
Ravi alongside vocalist Gregory Ayuen and their dynamic musicians had an
impressive showing at ‘The W Fete’ which was held at Solare Gardens. The new event
which is destined to be a Friday night Miami Carnival favourite featured Karma
in full force in an intimate venue complete with fan interaction and the full
audience participation for which the band is renowned.
