KITTIE To Release Downloadable EP Via ROCK RIDGE MUSIC

November 10, 2005

Canadian metallers KITTIE have signed with Rock Ridge Music to release a digital EP and ringtones in early 2006. Commented Jason Spiewak of Rock Ridge Music, "KITTIE rocks! They are an amazingly talented and focused group, and we're thrilled to be working with them."

KITTIE, which features sisters Morgan and Mercedes Lander (guitar/vocals and drums, respectively),Trish Doan (bass; ex-HER),and Tara Macleod (guitar; ex-SHERRY),have sold over one million records in the United States since the release of their debut effort, "Spit" (Artemis),in 2000. Morgan Lander says: "We are excited to finally have the ability to get new music out to our fans and delighted to be doing so with the help of Rock Ridge Music and Jason Spiewak. This is a unique opportunity to take advantage of the technology that is out there to introduce new material while we complete our forthcoming album."

KITTIE are currently working on material for their next full-length record, to be released next year via an as-yet-undetermined label. In the meantime, the band have signed with Rock Ridge Music to release a digital-only EP of new songs in the first quarter of 2006. Rock Ridge will also release KITTIE's first-ever official ringtones around the same time.

KITTIE, who parted ways with guitarist Lisa Marx and bassist Jennifer Arroyo earlier in the year, split with longtime label Artemis Records in March 2005 "due to a proposed amendment to the recording budget for the pending fourth KITTIE album," according to a post on the band's web site. The group's most recent CD, "Until the End", was released in July 2004.

Launched summer 2004, Rock Ridge Music offers its artists a label, artist management (if needed),national distribution, online marketing services, and a place to develop and maintain a solid career in the music business. Rock Ridge Music can be found online at www.rockridgemusic.com.
