Kill Hannah

Kill Hannah is an Electronic Rock / Alternative band from Chicago, Illinois, currently signed to Roadrunner Records. Kill Hannah formed in 1995 in a dorm room at the Art Institute of Chicago. Between 1996 and 2002, Kill Hannah self-released a slew of albums, singles and EPs independently -- all of which quickly sold out of multiple pressings.

Kill Hannah signed with Atlantic Records in late 2002. They recorded their Atlantic Records debut For Never and Ever in Los Angeles in the winter of 2003 with producer Sean Beavan (No Doubt, Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails) and mixer Tim Palmer (U2, The Cure, Tears For Fears). Through much of 2003 and 2004, Kill Hannah has toured separately with Chevelle, H.I.M., and The Sounds, while also opening for Evanescence, Jane's Addiction, Everclear, Eve 6, The All-American Rejects, Fuel, P.O.D., The Distillers, Story of the Year, Three Days Grace, Alien Ant Farm, The Buzzcocks, Andrew WK, Trapt, and many others. The single "Kennedy" debuted at #2 on modern rock radio, was performed on "Last Call with Carson Daly", and featured on such hit television shows as Jack & Bobby, One Tree Hill, and North Shore.

While producing their second album, drummer Garret Hammond left the band for family reasons, although he still performed all of the percussion on the CD. He is no longer a member of the band.

The ex-girlfriend of lead singer, Mat Devine, is the band's namesake. The two met at a college in Normal, Illinois and dove into an intense and strange relationship, which ended in the same fashion. Hannah is believed to now live somewhere in Europe.

Current band members include Mat Devine (vocals, guitar), Jon Radtke (guitar, keyboards), Dan Wiese (guitar), Greg Corner (bass), and Elias Mallin (live drums).

Kill Hannah released their second major label album, "Until There's Nothing Left Of Us" on August 1st 2006 with the single "Lips Like Morphine". They subsequently toured with acts as diverse as 30 Seconds to Mars, Papa Roach, Strata, Sick Puppies, and Flyleaf, ending up their North American touring cycle in support of the record opening for Alice in Chains and Velvet Revolver in summer 2007. Several short England-only tours followed.

In December 2007, Kill Hannah released a self-produced independent CD entitled "Hope for the Hopeless" which included B-sides, rarities, and several heretofore unreleased demos. The CD was released in conjunction with the band's fifth annual Christmas show in Chicago, New Heart for Xmas 5, which was expanded to two nights in 2007 with a small fan show the first night and a show at the Vic Theater for a larger audience the next night.

In January 2008, the band announced that they had signed to Roadrunner Records, and would be touring with Aiden in support of the European release of "Until There's Nothing Left of Us". They are scheduled to tour throughout Europe in Spring, 2008.

In 2009, the band has been hard at work on their 3rd major album and will start touring again in the spring.

‘Music City 411- Robin Gibb Tribute

By: Andrew Vaughan

It’s truly heartbreaking to see the pain Robin Gibb’s family is going through right now. The Bee Gees singer is in a coma after suffering with liver cancer and most recently pneumonia. Of course, several big name pop acts have passed away recently- Davy Jones of The Monkees probably the most recent. Now I knew Davy to talk to but I’d never met his family. Which is why hearing about the Gibb family’s pain surrounding Robin is so difficult to handle.
