Kitt Bender

Delivering a one-two punch of anthemic pop writing and stadium-ready rock showmanship, clear parallels exist between Seattle artist Kitt Bender and such perennially relevant acts as Sting, U2, and Phil Collins.

After earning his degree in music technology and composition, Bender released three albums, touring nationally in their support, and gathering a loyal following on his YouTube channel. Despite his success, Bender was unsatisfied and took it upon himself to push the level of artistry forward in his latest EP, Out of My Mind. Independent in the extreme, each track is penned, each instrument performed, and the album as a whole was produced and engineered by Bender himself.

The first single, Little Black Dress, was released as a lyric video in late 2013, followed by a highly successful release party held at the Seattle Rendezvous in early 2014. The event took its theme from the single; the packed house came attired in a semi-formal mix of suits and little black dresses. Out of My Mind was released digitally worldwide on February 11th, 2014.

Also in 2014, Bender signed a recording deal with London Tone Music Group as part of their 52×52, A Year in Your Ear program. The One You Have was released in June.

Bender’s momentum continues this year with a packed calendar, anticipated new releases, and exciting collaborations.

In addition the listed shows, Kitt plays many private events including weddings and cooperate events for the likes of Amazon, Ebay, Microsoft, and many others. He also performs regularly at SeaTac airport as part of the City of Music Program, and at Keys on Main, a dueling piano show in Seattle and Tacoma. Visit keysonmain.com for that schedule.
