Echoed Silence

Hey I'm Karen , (MMK) stands for Mum, Manager, Karen. Some would say Metal Mother Karen duE to the fact I love my Hard Rock and Heavy Metal. I live on the Atherton Tablelands an hour from Cairns up in the hills amongst tropical rainforests and crater lakes three days a week running my Cafe. The rest of the week I live at beautiful Trinity Beach north of Cairns pushing the Live Music Scene along. It is a beautiful part of the world but very isolated when it comes to a music scene.. Im trying to change that

Love to walk the beach at night. I love a full moon and the sound of the ocean. Love live music Tattoos peircings and people who are themselves. Individuality is important to me. "Never loose sight of your Dreams" There is always an asshole out there just waiting to bring you down and in my years of experience most people = shit. There are however some great people out there and im lucky enough to call them my friends.

My eldest son Jethro is the drummer for local Hard Rock/Metal Band Echoed Silence. I am the owner of the Malanda Snack Bar but this is up for sale. due to the fact I am never there . All of Echoed Silence have worked there at some point flipping burgers and cooking to earn a living. My life is never dull and I am kept busy between Cafe kids and band as well as my new venture as promoter and Organizer of Events in Far North QLD. I Love my music its more than a passion its an addiction. I love photography check out my pics.I love sitting side stage of an E.S. gig filming the guys belt it out. My footage is sometimes a bit shaky due to the fact I cant just be notionless when they play my need for head banging takes over. I started MMK Music Promotions as there was a need in the North for someone to help get the bands the gigs and spread the word of Indpendent music. After working with Echoed Silence for Five years trying to get them gigs and organizing events on a small scale it seemed to be the next step for me. Metal of Honor and its founders Mousey and V have given so much of their time to help me with my crusade of raising the awareness of Metal Music here in QLD. Comming on board with MMK Music Promotions to stage Cairns first Metal Event." METAL MAYHEM "
My home has been Echoed Silence Head Quarters since the beggining. For five years now I have managed the band and promoted them at every chance I get. My lounge room consists of all things band related including guitar strings stuck to the carpet, discarded ear plugs and lyrics on scrap paper but I would not have it any other way.



My home is always full of music usually of the Metal kind.I do however listen to a lot of music BUT NO COUNTRY PLEAASE. The only time I watch a tv screen is if there is a live music dvd playing on it .



.. My new venture Downunda Thunda Radio as Queensland Promotions Manager has enabled me to support the many talented artists that are in our state as well as get them airplay. Getting it out there is what I'm about.

Music is my life and what a life it is, I love it!! My Motto I live by is "Don't arrive at the grave in a perfectly preserved body slide in sideways saying Holy Fuck that was an awesome ride".

I am the Australian organizer and Promoter for ROCKFEST. FOUNDED IN 1991 BY TODD WEST GEORGIA. FIRST AUSTRALIAN EVENT WAS HELD IN CAIRNS ON JUNE 21ST 2008 AT FREAKQUENCY NITE CLUB. GIVEN THE TIME AND RIGHT BANDS IT WILL BE COMMING AGAIN TO CAIRNS NEXT YEAR. SUPPORT YOUR LIVE MUSIC SCENE WITHOUT THE PEOPLE ATTENDING THE SHOWS WE DONT HAVE A SHOW.
