Earlier this morning, it was reported that Kittie bassist Trish Doan had passed away at the age of 31. She was a member of the band from 2005 to 2007, appearing on the album Funeral for Yesterday. She left the band due to having anorexia-athletica-nervosa, which is described as an eating disorder coupled with overly exercising. Doan rejoined the band from 2012 up until her death this year.
Kittie‘s official Facebook posted the following statement:
Finding the right words is tough. She was so bright and vibrant and talented and we loved her and still do. She was so much more than just a musician or member of the band. She was our blood, our sister and family. Finding our way without her will be challenging, like a ship without a lighthouse, and we are devastated. We ask that you please respect our privacy and her family’s privacy during this difficult time.
No cause of death has been revealed; however, a glimpse into her Twitter or Instagram can give off suggestions.
Kittie was formed in 1996 and is mainly an all-female metal band from Canada. They have released six studio albums, with their latest being 2011’s I’ve Failed You (in which Doan was not a part of). They are planning the release of their career documentary titled Origins/Evolutions, which features every current and former member of the band. They have toured on a yearly basis, and have performed at festivals such as SnoCore, Ozzfest, and the Gathering of the Juggalos. They have also toured alongside artists such as Slipknot, In This Moment, and Insane Clown Posse.
