Red Telephone Presents
The Klittens + Thee Mightees
This September The Klittens will release their long awaited debut album “Have A Heart". Crafted from blood, sweat and cardboard, this title will be self-released in true Klittens fashion.“Have A Heart“ paints a heavy picture with pastels. Both an accusation and a plea, the title preaches to the core of the album; the feelings of powerlessness we all experience in our lifetime and the ways we fight back against them. No matter how great or small your sense of helplessness may be. Whatever form your reaction to this feeling takes, whether resistance or surrender, there’s a good chance there’s a track on “Have A Heart” that you can relate to.
This five piece combines their love for pop music and dark sentiments with a punk ethos. Drawing inspiration from a wide range of artists - such as The Ronettes, MF Doom, Dry Cleaning and Kate Bush - they've crafted a sound that's truly and twistedly their own. What initially began as an outlet, both creatively and politically, mutated into a musical life mission for its members. Their DIY approach, from songwriting to releasing music and tour management, is what makes The Klittens the ragtag bunch of misfits they are. The band consists of Yaël Dekker (vocals), Winnie Conradi (guitar), Katja Kahana (guitar), Marrit Meinema (bass guitar), and Laurie Zantinge (drums).
Support comes from Sheffield jangle poppers, Thee Mightees
