The Klittens, have shared “Have A Heart”, the tittle track is off the Dutch band’s forthcoming album, available September 25th via Cargo Records. “Have a Heart” is about using apathy as a form of self-defence. “’Have A Heart’ was an easy song to start and a tougher one to finish. From the get-go the concept was clear: an indie song that ripples along with a rock ’n roll sort of strut. But where there’s ease I want chaos and my campaign for an unstructured noise part was born,” guitarist Winnie Conradi explains. “Someone once said about our very first single: ‘you think you know where you stand with The Klittens until they serve up a sonic curveball’ and I think we stayed true to that – throughout the entire album actually.”

Have A Heart follows The Klittens EP’s Citrus (2022) and Butter (2024). The band have toured extensively across Europe and the UK, and shared stages with Otoboke Beaver and BODEGA. As a part of the Dutch indie wave that includes bands like Personal Trainer, Real Farmer, Lewsberg and Pip Blom, The Klittens also organise their own annual festival Klitfest in the Netherlands.

The band includes Yaël Dekker (vocals), Winnie Conradi (guitar), Katja Kahana (guitar), Marrit Meinema (bass guitar), and Laurie Zantinge (drums). Their music is inspired by the sounds of The Ronettes, MF Doom, Dry Cleaning and Kate Bush and more.
