about

kitti seamlessly melts elements of jazz, funk, soul and rock genres together in this powerful first instalment from her debut album due for release in 2024.

With this single, kitti’s lyrics delve into the overwhelming feeling of being stuck in a rut, and the profound desire for an external entity or energy to help guide you out of the darkness and into the light.

Recorded at Beetroot Studios in Airdrie - The majority of the track is recorded live, with the magical addition of a 4 piece brass section, arranged by Harry Weir. Paying homage to some of her main influences such as Rufus, Led Zeppelin and Betty Davis - kitti showcases her vocal ability in the best we’ve heard it so far, with heavy guitars and a groove that’s impossible to sit still to - all while evoking a range of raw emotions and leaving a lasting impact.

lyrics

another day another heartache
another beating that my drum takes
and all the venom from the snake
screams “you can’t go on”

i dunno why you do this to me
cause every time it cuts right through me
i can’t keep playin’ that i’m carefree 
cause i can’t go on

There must be somethin
That I can
Heal these wounds with
And I know
Lucy got me
And we fuel this fire

another stormy sky on sunday
black dog keeps clawing at my face
a never ending helter skelter 
it’s just not my day

an existential flood of numbness (so numb)
yet i feel shaken to the core 
there’s no bright light that can awake me
you’d have to suck on every sore

There must be somethin
That I can
Heal these wounds with
And I know
Lucy got me
And we fuel this fire (x2)

Ahhh
Nah nah nah nah (x3)

There must be somethin
That I can
Heal these wounds with
And I know
Lucy got me
And we fuel this fire (x repeat)
