My Sleeping Karma are back. Last June, the band suffered the loss of drummer Steffen Weigand after a long battle with cancer, and at the time, the band made no comment about their future. Now, they've confirmed their return to the stages with new drummer André Stein.

Statement from the band as follows: "Dear brothers and sisters, they say time is a healer, but some wounds never seem to heal at all. After the tragical loss of our musical soulmate Steffen, we felt desperate and had absolutely no clue how to deal with the situation and how to go along with My Sleeping Karma as a band. We are still so grateful for the fund raise that so many of you supported and for the enormous amount of requests to keep our music and Steffen's spirit alive.

"After long and intense discussions, we finally came to the conclusion that it is our duty to proceed with My Sleeping Karma. To proceed for you, the people, to proceed for Steffen. Today it is our pleasure to introduce to you our new drummer André. He has been a member of the MSK-Family for such a long time and was our light and video engineer in the past. André is switching positions now and we are in serious rehearsals before hitting the stage again. Some personal words from André will follow in the next days."
