Lil' People Records announced that Afro-Groove, singer-songwriter
Karlex has been invited to perform the upcoming London Calling
conference, the international music business event taking place at
Earls Court, London on the 28th and 29th June. Karlex will open the
Westbourne Studios' International Night (242 Acklam Road, London W10)
on Wednesday June 27 at 8:20 PM as well as Neighbourhood (12 Acklam
Road) on Thursday June 28th at 8:20 PM. Both shows are free to

IDTGV, a part of the SNCF which runs France's high-speed TGV trains,
had recently invited the Haitian American performer to perform it's
first musical tour. The seven day tour brought Karlex on the Paris-
Perpignan TGV train line, where he performed tracks from his new album
"Ghetto Fabulous" at the respective stations as well as at the "Bar
iDZinc" in the lounge car during the voyage.
Karlex soulfully fusses the vibes of his native island with funky
guitar sounds and heavy bass, in a unique blend called Afro Groove.
"Ghetto Fabulous" has been making waves in France since its release in
September 2006. The album was selected by "Arte TV" as an October
Event and by "Radio Africa No 1" as Album Of The Week leading up to
the release. Karlex was invited to perform on his song "I've Got News
For You..." France 2's 'Live Acoustic', while also being chosen by
Acoustic Fuel as a 'Daily ReFill - In Celebration of Black History
Month.'
