Karina Rykman plays bass, sings, jumps around, and laughs a lot. Straddling the worlds of jam rock and indie pop drenched in psychedelia, Karina’s effervescent presence comes to life in musical form. Born & raised in NYC, Rykman began in her early teens and quickly earned a reputation as an unmissable live act. Tearing up sold-out headline performances to ravenous fans, playing show-stealing festival/support slots, plus recent appearances in the house band on NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers - Karina stays busy. Rykman released her debut album, JOYRIDE via AWAL in August 2023 and features Trey Anastasio as co-producer & featured musician, contributing guitar on five of the album’s nine tracks.
