Karmakanic is a Swedish progressive rock project that was founded in 2002 by the talented bassist and singer Jonas Reingold. This musical endeavor can be seen as an offshoot or a closely related cousin to the developments in the Scandinavian and wider European progressive rock and fusion scenes. Karmakanic is known for their complex arrangements, sophisticated compositions, and philosophical lyrics, all of which are heavily influenced by the works of classic prog bands such as Yes, Genesis, and King Crimson.

Their discography showcases a dedication to conceptual continuity and sonic exploration, with the album "Who's the Boss in the Factory?" released in 2008, standing out as a pivotal work that earned widespread praise for its intricate musical storytelling and polished production. They followed this success with "In a Perfect World" in 2011, further solidifying their reputation for crafting immersive and dynamic prog rock journeys. The live album "Live in the US," released in 2014, captured the energy and precision of their on-stage performances, much to the delight of fans. The most recent studio album from Karmakanic, "DOT," was released in 2016 and is another testament to their virtuosity and ambition, weaving jazz, rock, and classical influences into a seamless tapestry of prog excellence. Throughout their career, Karmakanic has consistently managed to keep the spirit of progressive rock alive and evolving, while also appealing to a broad range of listeners through their accessible melodies and profound lyrical themes.
