Karim began singing at Labyrinth, a local dive bar. One of the band's members used to fall asleep with the radio playing as a teenager. The members of Karim were friends in college. The group was influenced by Bobby Darin.

A member of Karim started dating a girl whose fatherwas a record executive. She passed the single on to them and the band signed a record deal soon after. The group's members all had odd jobs while they worked hard to be known. Karim signed the record deal, and fully expected that they would last past the first album. The group really enjoys performing and is playing almost nightly in front of fans.

The new album from Karim has been heavily influenced by The Rolling Stones. The band may have recently completed their newest album, but they are thinking of what is next to come. Karim's members hope to collaborate with other artists while they are on tour.

Karim respects the fact that their fans love their previous albums, so they go to great effort to incorporate the older hits with the newest ones. The band loves playing in Kansas City because they played their first sold out show there.
