Australian red-dust desert rock outfit “Kitchen Witch” is Australia’s answer to both the California desert/stoner rock scene and Europe’s stoner/prog/psych circuit. With half the founding members hailing from the red centre of Alice Springs and the other half just a stone’s throw from the Flinders Ranges, this band is not just desert rock by name.
In 2013, Kitchen Witch formed and soon recorded the double A-side single “Shock/Beer Swilling Baby”. 2015 saw the release of the “Trouble” EP. The 5 track blues-rock release attracted thousands of plays online and featured on the globally distributed Classic Rock UK Magazine. Then in 2016, Kitchen Witch recorded the darker “Back To The Mud” EP at Studio Finetime, showing a heavier side to the group that is evident in their live shows.
On the strength of these releases, Kitchen Witch signed with Berlin-based record label Kozmik Artifactz in 2017 and released selected tracks from these EPs as a full-length self-titled vinyl release.
For their 2nd Kozmik Artifactz record, the band released their follow-up album “Earth and Ether” in August 2020. Recorded at Ghostnote Studios in South Australia, the new record is available worldwide only as digital and vinyl editions. It debuted at #3 on the Australian Independent Record Album Charts and #11 on the worldwide Doom Charts. It’s live debut was an online virtual gig, streamed live to fans all over Australia and the world, from the desert in Cali to the snow in Denmark.
Kitchen Witch continues to go from strength to strength with their unique powerful twist of blues & soul, 70’s rock, desert psychedelia and stoner doom.
A force to be seriously reckoned with - Desert Psychlist
