explosive live jams + electric energy

Rainbow Kitten Surprise may sound like the title of a Japanese game show, but the band's mature, genre-defying sound is as surprising as their choice of moniker. Drawing upon facets of grunge, alt-rock, blues and unapologetic pop, the North Carolina natives craft upbeat anthems that underlie lead singer Sam Melo's poetic, howling lyrics and vocals.

Known for their electric live performances featuring the fire and fury of not only Melo's emotive vocal stylings but his high-energy dancing and crowd-surfing, Rainbow Kitten Surprise are veteran performers who give everything they've got to every bar of every song. With rhythm a focal point of the band's writing, recorded songs translate to explosive live jams where driving drums make it impossible for the crowd to stand still.
