Kitty

In the spring of 2012, Kitty Ray uploaded her first music video “okay cupid” on a lunch break from her job at Claire’s. Her hypnotic flow and winking wordplay took the internet by storm, and the polarizing success of her first mixtape crystallized this Daytona Beach native as a bastion of music industry subversion. In the years since her debut, Kitty’s solo music has metamorphosed from bedroom rap to self-produced weirdo-pop. Her recent self-released album “Rose Gold” reached #9 on Billboard’s dance charts, and has been described as “perfectly stilted and strained, a continuing struggle of digital transmissions over the course of its duration that remains perfectly modern while harkening back to the 808s & Heartbreak era”With her cheeky social presence, genre-bending sound, eclectic catalog of bangers and relentless DIY ethic, Kitty won’t quit until she’s coated the world in her special blend of fairy dust. She’ll be joined by west coast alt pop duo vverevvolf and local band Photocomfort for a special one night show at the ONCE Ballroom.
