Kittie Ignites the Stage: 30 Years of Metal Fury with 'Legacy Of Fire Tour'
Canadian heavy music legends Kittie are set to unleash a seismic wave of nostalgia and raw power with the announcement of their 'Legacy Of Fire Tour: 30 Years Of Kittie.' This 16-date North American trek kicks off on June 6th in St. Louis, marking the band’s first full headline tour in over a decade. As they celebrate three decades since their inception in 1996, Kittie is riding high on the success of their recent comeback album 'Fire' and the anticipated 'Spit XXV' re-recorded anniversary EP.
In a heartfelt update, the band shared, “As many of you know, Ivy is a devoted mom to a young family, and right now her focus needs to be at home. Because of those family commitments, she won’t be joining us on this tour. We fully support her decision and know how important this time is for her and her family.” Fear not, as the tour will still be a force to be reckoned with, featuring special guests Kingdom Of Giants and Gore, ensuring that every night will be an unforgettable celebration of heavy music across the continent.
From St. Louis to Montreal, this tour will see Kittie dominate major markets including New York, Nashville, and Toronto. Each stop promises to be a festival of sound, showcasing both their iconic hits and deep cuts that have defined a generation of metal. With a legacy underscored by their recent successes, including a #13 spot on the UK Rock & Metal Albums chart and a Juno Award nomination, Kittie’s resurgence is nothing short of remarkable.
Already confirmed for additional dates in the UK and Germany this summer, Kittie is on a relentless path of domination. The support of bands like Crypta and Vexed in Germany, along with Split Chain and Harpy in the UK, ensures that the metal fervor will be felt across the ocean as well. With over 843,000 monthly Spotify listeners and a commanding presence at major festivals, Kittie's influence transcends mere nostalgia; they are a vital force in the current metal landscape.
As they forge ahead into this new era, the 'Legacy Of Fire Tour' stands as a testament to Kittie's enduring impact on heavy music. Prepare yourself for a night that will not only celebrate their rich catalog but will also serve as a reminder of why Kittie remains a powerhouse in the genre. This is an event you won’t want to miss—metal lives here, and Kittie is at the forefront.
