AloneKitty - AloneKitty
AloneKitty is a shoegaze band from Toronto, Canada created by Michelle K and heavily influenced by the genre-defining sounds of Sonic Youth, Slowdive, HUM, Mogwai and My Bloody Valentine, as well as bands from Creation Records‘ heyday.
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, as well as recruiting a live band to deliver that wall of sound in local venues. Michelle states – “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”
2025 is expected to be a busy year with a subsequent release already being in the works as well as more live shows with drummer Stefan Loebus and bassist Jonathan Knowles.
