Kitty and the can openers have officially signed with
Audio-Ill records, an ongoing arrangement which was finalised last Thursday.
Involved in the agreement is a two year recording contract, as well as a tie-in with Audio-Ill’s sister company,
Grand Parade Music Publishing, based in London.
What this essentially amounts to is that debut album which has been
gestating over the past few years. More than likely the record will
serve as a document of our miscellaneous adventures since we put this
show on the road, accompanied by a tour to promote the album and a few
singles, just for kicks! This time round we’ll have Earth Studios at
our disposal, so unfettered by budget restrictions (the bane of many an
up and coming act) we can expect a truly unique sound to do justice to
our songs.
Many thanks to all of you for your exemplary and ever-patient
support, for all who gave us our early breaks and heads-up along the
way, including but not limited to
AU magazine, Rigsy and the gang at
ATL,
Rory McConnell of Radio 1 fame, Joe Dougan, and Andy and Scott of
deadon music. Special significance should be singled out to some of our earliest acolytes,
Tom McShane,
Geoff Gatt
not the least amongst them, who have given us lots of support during
the long process of refining our sound and finding our creative
direction.
Also to any of you, far too many to mention, who have handed over
your hard earned cash for our music, attended our gigs or indeed
simply expressed your enjoyment of our music, for reminding us that
someone is listening.
Regards must also go out to
the Delawares, who inspired us to start a band in the first place.
Otherwise it’ll all be business as usual , except now we have a piece of paper to justify our work!
cheerios!
