Rockabilly’s Rising Rockabilly Artist KARLING Hits the Road For Shows in California and at Groovefest Promoting her New Album ‘Bound For Nowhere’

ROCKABILLY’S RISING SONGSTRESS,
KARLING, HEADS TO MUSIC VENUES THROUGHOUT
CALIFORNIA AND TO ‘GROOVEFEST’ IN CEDAR CITY, UTAH
FOR A SERIES OF JUMPIN’ PERFORMANCES
FEATURING MUSIC FROM HER NEW ALBUM
BOUND FOR NOWHERE’ DUE OUT MAY 1 

Destined to be Rockabilly’s new leading princess, Karling brings her contagious honky-tonk sound from her new album Bound For Nowhere (set for release on May 1) to existing and future fans alike this spring.  The multi-talented, British-born, Los Angeles based performer, accessorized with a microphone instead of a crown (and even a beer bottle or two), is set to hit cities throughout California– including Burbank, North Hollywood, Ventura and Solvang– and to Cedar City, Utah for two shows at the popular music festival, Groovefest in June.

Karling’s eclectic vibe has earned comparisons to Patsy Cline, Tammy Wynette and June Carter. She’s even been described as “Wanda Jackson meets Gwen Stefani, who puts in a conference call to David Bowie who’s lunching with the Stray Cats.”

In 2009, Karling snagged a Hollywood Music in Media Award (HMMA) nomination for “Another Lovely Day,” the charming, easy rolling lament that kicks off Bound For Nowhere, which she also performed at the ceremony. She has also won three L.A. Music Awards: Rockabilly Album of the Year, Rockabilly Artist of the Year, and Female Americana Vocalist of the Year.
