The Good KarmasWe’re an alternative rock band. We are based in the market town of Coleford, near Gloucester. There are four of us in the band: brother and sister, Glen and Polly Jackson (15 & 16), Jason O’Dwyer (16) and John Martin (15). Three of us live in Coleford but John doesn’t live here. He lives in a nearby town called Lydney. Glen is the lead guitarist and Polly – the vocalist. Jason is the drummer and John plays the keyboards. We perform at local music festivals and at other events.

Send uS your queSTionS!n What are your musical

influences? We like indie bands like Radiohead

and we’re fans of American hip hop groups like The Black Eyed Peas too. We don’t like heavy metal.

n Where do you practise? We practise in Jason’s dad’s garage

at the weekend. There aren’t any people around then. Sometimes we practise in Glen and Polly’s garden and the neighbours come and watch!

n Who writes your songs? We write them together. Polly

writes the words and we add our ideas for the music.

n How often do you have gigs? We have lots of gigs in the

summer, about twenty or thirty. We don’t have many gigs in the winter. That’s when we practise!

n Have you got any Cds? Our first CD is coming out in

December! It’s called Here We Come!

1  Music is very important to Welsh 

people. This is why Wales is sometimes 

called ‘The Land of Song’. At school, 

music is an obligatory subject until 

children are 14. After that, it is optional. 

Children often learn how to play musical 

instruments. Others love singing in 

groups or choirs. 

2  Folk music is popular in Wales. It is lively and fast. Folk groups play at special parties called ‘Noson Lawen’. They often play violins and Welsh bagpipes. The Welsh harp is another traditional instrument.

3  Classical music and pop are 

also popular. All-men or male 

voice choirs are typical in some 

parts of the country. Successful 

pop groups include groups like 

Manic Street Preachers and 

Stereophonics. The most famous 

Welsh singer is probably Tom 

Jones.

4  Every year there is an important music festival in Wales called the National Eisteddfod. It’s the biggest competitive music festival in Europe. The songs are always in Welsh but people don’t mind travelling from all around the world to watch the performers.
