"The Karmatics" evolved when singer/guitarist Curt Hobbs took a long vacation from music. In the summer of 2002 with music in his bones and the help of drummer David Scott and long time friend and bassist Jeff Sills "The Karmatics" was born.

Several musicians later five awesome guys make up the band. The Karmatics are comprised of Curt Hobbs, former vocalist and front man of Minerva,  Jeff Sills, former bassist of Minerva, and David Scott on drums.  In 2003, Steve Baker, former vocalist/guitarist and front man of The Dive was added as second guitar and back-up vocals.  Erik King, a former guitarist  of Minerva was brought to the table to add in a third guitarist in November 2004 to complete the group.

The Karmatics play within the indie rock genre of music.  Although, if you ask any of the guys what genre they play, they would all say, “We play Karmatic Style”.

 The Karmatics bring the musical world a sound all their own. With influences from Built to Spill, Pink Floyd, Radiohead and The Beatles, The Karmatics sound is well thought out and expressively played.  These top-notch musicians bring you a style of music that is not only entertaining but will leave you energized and ready for their next performance. They are always going that extra mile to make their music happen as a band and not as individual musicians. Every member believes in sharing their ideas with the rest of the band to make their music superb. This is well noted when you hear each member’s individuality and technique in every song.  

If you want to get away from the typical everyday rock, you’ll love The Karmatics.  The Karma is there...and waiting to take your breath away.
