New project from Jenna Fournier of NIIGHTS
KID TIGRRR is the new solo project of singer-songwriter Jenna Fournier, a painter/visual artist best known for fronting NIIGHTS, a shoegaze hybrid formed in 2010. Following three studio releases and four international tours to Japan with her band, Fournier parted ways with her record label of five years and ventured into audio engineering to experiment with home music production in 2020. Her debut LP, Stoned and Animald, is three years in the making, being self-produced at home, then finished in-studio. The result is an ethereal blend of art-rock, indie folk, and dream-pop, painting lush atmospheres around intimate songwriting. The work tackles subjects such as abuse, addiction, and mental health struggles in an effort to challenge stigmas.
Her first single, 'Shapes of Water,' began as an official demo for an EarthQuaker Devices pedal, and was later debuted live for Dreamgaze Fest presented by DKFM Shoegaze Radio.
Kid Tigrrr's influences include My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, Grouper, Mazzy Star, The Smashing Pumpkins, CocoRosie, Grimes, and The Cure.
