Roadrunner Records are thrilled to announce the signing of Chicago alt rockers KILL HANNAH.
Easily described as the bridge between The Killers, The Cure, Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance, their sound is at once familiar and refreshingly original, showing undeniable growth by taking chances in a world where most art is being played safe.
Despite having no TV or radio play in the UK yet, the band have already headlined and sold out up to 1000 capacity venues on their recent tours here. You might also have caught them last year at the Give It A Name festival, or more recently as main support for the sold out UK tour with Finnish sensation HIM.
Kill Hannah will return to the UK as main support to Aiden on the following dates:
March 28 – Portsmouth Pyramid Centre
March 29 – Cardiff Solus
March 30 – Bristol Academy
March 31 – Dublin Spirit 57
April 1 – Glasgow Garage
April 2 – Manchester Academy 2
April 3 – Oxford Academy
April 4 – Norwich UEA
April 5 – Nottingham Rock City
April 7 – Birmingham Academy 2
April 8 – Leeds Cockpit
April 9 - London Astoria
April 10 – Brighton Concorde 2
In the USA, Kill Hannah have toured with Jared Leto’s 30 Seconds To Mars, Lostprophets, Angels and Airwaves, HIM, and even with such diverse acts as Velvet Revolver and Alice In Chains, to name but a few. Constant touring - over 250 shows in the last 18 months alone - has built Kill Hannah a dedicated fanbase. The band have amassed over 200,000 friends on MySpace (and over 11 million plays) and fans have set up their own street team and fan club, called the Kill Hannah Kollective (KHK). The KHK has active branches in almost every major city across the USA, and now in nearly every major country as well.
First single Lips Like Morphine is due for release on March 17. The accompanying video has received over 1.5 million plays on YouTube to date. The band’s first album release in the UK and Japan will be Until There’s Nothing Left Of Us with added songs from their first U.S. release For Never & Ever, plus new unreleased tracks. Until There’s Nothing Left Of Us is set to hit stores on March 24.
