Karmina Reach Album Fundraiser Goal

Karmina checked in with fans on their Facebook earlier today after reaching their goal to raise $5,000 via Kickstarter to fund their new album since they no longer have label support. They will perform a gig in Los Angeles to celebrate the fundraiser on December 9th. The sister duo write:

Can’t believe it, can believe it, can’t believe it, CAN! We’re going to finish this album!! Thank you Jeff, Debra, Dominic, Rebecca, Jacqui, Jessica, Katie, Kathleen, Dianne & Alyson for being the pledgers to put us over our goal…wow. Any extra pledges will go toward either another song on the album, a website facelift or touring….. 4 more days!
