   Tristan Bourdeau de Fontenay to All   
   Tribute To Amy Winehouse & Other Members   
   09 Mar 15 08:15:56   
   
   From: sunofmusic@gmail.com   
      
   No Mad Karma are a unique blend of ancient Kazakh melodies and traditional   
   instruments crafted by composer Aidos Sagat, blended with cutting edge western   
   soundz and lyrics by vocalist Sye who is a cousin of cult artist Amy   
   Winehouse, and incredibly also    
   the son of legendary 60's vocalist Frankie Vaughan. Backed by a group of   
   London's finest musicians.   
      
   The first single from the band, '27', is a tribute to Winehouse written by Sye   
   shortly after her death, in which she joined Cobain, Hendrix and the other   
   members of the so called '27 club'. The lyrics and the video - filmed in   
   Camden where Winehouse    
   became so iconic - pay emotional tribute to one of our generation's finest   
   talents, and honours the awesome musical legacy The "27" Club has left us.   
      
   The new single is the just first part of a 2015 music industry assault by this   
   band of incredible musicians, with an album coming soon. Recorded in part at   
   the infamous Rockfield Studios in Wales - where Bohemian Rhapsody was recorded   
   - the clash of    
   styles and cultures make for a heady, and very unusual mix.   
      
   It's little wonder that the sound of the band is so precise and smart, as it   
   is full of players with incredible pedigree in the music industry. Soul Power   
   House Backing vocalist Jaelee Small is the daughter of Millie Small of 'My Boy   
   Lollipop' fame,    
   while the No Mad Karma Rhythm Section have played on countless Gold and   
   Platinum Records with a who's who of the music industry.   
      
   Bassist Phil Spalding (with Mick Jagger, Mike Oldfield, Ray Charles, Robbie   
   Williams, Elton John) and Drummer/Producer Preston Heyman (Kate Bush, Paul   
   McCartney, Massive Attack, Tina Turner, Terence Trent D'arby) clearly know how   
   to create top class    
   foundations for new music, and it shows in Prestons crisp cinematic production   
   here.   
      
   No Mad Karma's début single '27' is released on April 20th with the album to   
   follow in the spring !
