KITSA is a rousing heavy rock act hailing from the salted aura of Port Orchard, Washington. Launched in 2022, the band’s music is deeply rooted in weighty riffs, spanning various genres over several decades, with a deep nod to Pacific Northwest grunge.

With Elder, The Sword, Down, Alice In Chains, and Nazareth cited as some of their influences, the foursome of KITSA comprises members from eclectic bands, including Devilbilt, YEDD, Teepee Creeper, Pivot Point, Earthwreck, and Abused. In April 2023, KITSA released three incendiary live demo tracks recorded by Jeremy Deede and Tony Reed at Devils Child Records.

Later in 2023, the band set out to record their full-length debut, »Dead By Dawn«. A melting pot of musical forces, the record features an assortment of sweet, sweeping vocal harmonies on the title track »Dead By Dawn«, the live fan favorite »Journeyman«, and a classic rock banger »Seeds Of Famine«. »Dead By Dawn« is transcended by hard-hitting muscled tracks like »She« and »Hate«.

»Dead By Dawn« was produced by the venerable Tony Reed, with all songs written by KITSA. The album was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Reed at APL and HeavyHead Recording Co. in October and November of 2023. The album’s intimidating artwork was created by the gifted Jerry Padilla and Rob Lorenz.

KITSA’s debut album is a formidable contender for the new year, boasting vigorous and versatile songs that showcase a combination of technical proficiency and artistic elegance that caters to many sorts of music enthusiasts. The full-length »Dead By Dawn« will be available in digital and physical formats, including vinyl pressing through Music Abuse Records.
