NEWS: Kittie announce their return after 13 years!

In a monumental return that marks their first new music in thirteen years, Canadian Metal outfit Kittie have announced their signing with Sumerian Records with a new single titled “Eyes Wide Open“. Produced by Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Alice In Chains, Korn) the track takes us on a journey through light and darkness while finding guitarist and vocalist Morgan Lander, drummer Mercedes Lander, guitarist Tara McLeod and bassist Ivy Vujic once again a dominant force.

Kittie co-founder and front-woman Morgan Lander expressed her enthusiasm for the band’s return and new partnership: “Sometimes, incredible opportunities present themselves in surprising ways. Just a few years ago we could have never imagined we would be getting ready to release new music as Kittie. We’ve been given what feels like a second life and are grateful to Ash and the Sumerian family for believing in us.”

Speaking on the inspiration behind the new single, Lander goes on to share, “Our first new material in 13 years, ‘Eyes Wide Open ‘ is a vision quest for truth. It is a torch lit in the darkness of ignorance to reveal one’s true motives. ‘Eyes Wide Open’ is a lesson in trust, betrayal, and ultimately the ability to see behind the curtain to reveal all. It was one of the first songs we wrote, coming together again after a long time away from creating, and I think you can really hear the fires reigniting in this track.”

Sumerian Records Founder and CEO, Ash Avildsen adds: “Kittie are true female pioneers in heavy music that helped bring it into pop culture. They have been both influential in the studio and on the road, as I’ve had the privilege of working with them on touring years ago when they brought out Bring Me The Horizon, In This Moment and many other present day heavyweights as brand new opening acts. The ladies have now returned with what I believe is their greatest album since their debut that set the world ablaze. The attitude, grit and songwriting is all there and I am honored to once again be helping them unleash their talent to the masses.”
