NASHVILLE PUSSY Sign With SPITFIRE RECORDS

January 25, 2005

NASHVILLE PUSSY have inked a North American deal with Spitfire Records.

Taking their name from the intro to the "Double Live Gonzo" version of TED NUGENT's "Wang Dang Sweet Poontang", the band's current lineup features Kentucky-born singer/guitarist Blaine Cartwright (formerly of 9 POUND HAMMER),lead guitarist and Vancouver B.C. transplant Ruyter Suys (pronounced "Rider Sighs"),drummer Jeremy Thompson (a.k.a. "Remo"),and new addition Karen Cuda on bass and supporting vocals hailing from Denver Colorado.

Since founding the band in 1996 — the husband-and-wife guitar team of Cartwright and Suys pursued their vision until it became reality. "We were sick of seeing bands that sucked, so we decided to make the kind of band that we wanted to see," says Suys. Straight off the blocks — NASHVILLE PUSSY was positively infamous for their ferocious, take-no-prisoners live shows — and immediately the most talked about band in the country. NASHVILLE PUSSY was soon the object of a heated bidding war between the majors and band's debut, "Let Them Eat Pussy", earned them a Grammy nomination and slot on a MARILYN MANSON tour.

Blaine Cartwright says about the new CD, "It's like the return of NASHVILLE PUSSY. We put some of the sleaze and glam back in, only better. It's a good-time rock & roll record. We've always been in that situation where we had to keep everything going, touring, rehearsals, and writing. This time we've taken the time and reloaded. I want to get back to kicking ass in America, 'cause America needs its ass kicked."
