Acoustic Karma

After getting to know each other performing in different acts at Rocktoberfest, the band members of Acoustic Karma combined in 2014 to bring even more music to the acoustic stage to benefit ALTSO's kids. Every year, Acoustic Karma comes together to support ALTSO with a variety of music to get the crowd rockin' for good. The band can't wait to get back onstage! See you there! 

Featuring: Doug Newsome, vocals, guitar, Perkins Fund Marketing; Koma Gandy Fischbein, vocals, guitar; Greg Khost, percussion, Glenmede; Sinan Kurtul, guitar, vocals, EKS International; Chris Haas, Neuberger Berman

Why do you support ALTSO? 

ALTSO directly raises the trajectory of children's entire lives!

What are your top three albums—no skips, all hits? 

This is an impossible question! Aerosmith Rocks, Fleetwood Mac, Rumours, Frampton Comes Alive

The greatest investment you can make is in a child’s future. Rocktoberfest proceeds help provide free mobility care to CoolKids in emerging countries, providing the foundation needed to break the poverty cycle: independence, education, community, and future gainful employment.
