// ABOUT THE ARTIST

Headline: AloneKitty is the creation of Toronto-based artist Michelle K, heavily influenced by the likes of Sonic Youth, Slowdive, HUM, Mogwai, Ivy and My Bloody Valentine, as well as bands from Creation Records’ heyday.

“My sound is really rooted in the love of the above-mentioned bands that were a huge part of my development as a writer and how I think about music. A wall of sound that sandblasts away your thoughts and places you in a unique state of bliss is what shoegaze is all about for me. The lyrics are a reflection of my struggles with relationships, work and transition over the last few years. At a show someone described us as SWANS with hooks which was great!”

Formed after Michelle was laid off from her tech job, she spent a year writing and recording for the debut record, the intensely personal AloneKitty. 

It’s evolved into a full band that now has  Jonathan Knowles on bass and Stefan Loebus on drums.

AloneKitty is currently signed to  Mint400 Records and is now completing the follow up release with Josh Korody.
