Kiss the Tiger Share New Video “It’s Not Over”

This Friday, Minneapolis-based rock band Kiss the Tiger will release their highly anticipated new album, Infinite Love. The 10-song collection brings the group’s signature edgy rock sound to life with a fierce passion, inviting listeners to surrender to desire as it delves into the emotional spectrum of enduring love – not the kind that flickers and fades, but one that burns steadily with intensity and conviction. Infinite Love is a striking new chapter for the band that amplifies their growth as songwriters, complete with strong guitar-driven hooks, instantly memorable choruses, and anthemic compositions with a flair for the theatrical.

As a final taste of the project, today Kiss the Tiger shared the single + video, “It’s Not Over.” The track unfolds like a distress call for a love that one is scared of losing, with frontwoman Meghan Kreidler’s dreamy vocals channeling a nostalgic '80s rock and roll energy. It’s a perfect picture of yearning – a raw expression of the ache that comes with not being able to let go of a great love.

Kreidler says, “‘It’s Not Over’ is about clinging to a love that has passed. It’s about that feeling of desperation and hopeful delusion that exists when something has just ended. It’s the grip of holding on before needing to let go.”

Kiss the Tiger are also The Current’s (Minnesota Public Radio) September Local Artist of the Month! Check out last weekend’s interview on The Local Show here.

The band will be kicking off their East Coast tour tomorrow with a hometown album release show in Minneapolis at Icehouse before hitting cities like Chicago, New York City, Washington DC, and more.

At a time when the world seems intent on pushing us further inward and further apart, Kiss the Tiger are here to rattle our bones and bust us out of our cocoons with some good old fashioned rock and roll. Fronted by the magnetic and disarming Meghan Kreidler, who draws on her background in theater to break the fourth wall between audience and band with her righteous fist pumps and high kicks, this is a band that doesn’t just play. They combust.

The genesis of Kiss the Tiger’s upcoming new album Infinite Love feels somewhat nebulous. Like much of their previous work, the band has evolved their creative output with no single defining starting point, but through the trials of artistic life on the road, at home, and everything in between. The nucleus of their enterprise lies in the dual songwriting efforts of now husband-and-wife Michael Anderson and Meghan Kreidler. In fact, the birth of the band begins almost simultaneously with the meeting of the two. Over the course of their 10-year partnership Anderson and Kreidler have fused their unique sensibilities and perspectives to create a world that neither of them could have dreamed without the other. Infinite Love was recorded throughout 2024 with their wedding wedged directly between sessions. And when it came down to naming the album – also the title of Track 8 on this 10-song collection – Infinite Love felt like the perfect synthesis of everything they’ve built so far, as well as the endless possibilities that exist when creating something with the one you love.

Over the past few years, Kiss the Tiger have set the Twin Cities ablaze, and there’s nary a club, block party, park amphitheater or backyard that they haven’t transformed with their commanding live shows. Kreidler is backed on stage by her longtime partner and creative foil, Michael Anderson, on rhythm guitar, plus lead guitarist Alex Sandberg, bassist Paul DeLong, drummer Alyse Emanuel, and keyboard player Isabella Dawis.

Their live sets are often accompanied by sing-alongs from the crowd, all of which have become instantly recognizable to locals thanks to regular airplay on the tastemaking public radio station 89.3 The Current. (“Hold On to Love,” specifically, spent a whopping nine weeks at No. 1 on The Current’s Chart Show and was inducted into the Chart Show Hall of Fame.) In addition to headlining their own barn-burning shows, Kiss the Tiger have also been tapped to open for prominent acts like Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, Lucinda Williams, Lake Street Dive, Sammy Rae and the Friends, Gary Clark Jr., The Hold Steady, The Suburbs, Black Joe Lewis, and Daughtry. They have also brought their act on the road to open for Philly’s Low Cut Connie, Austin’s Emily Wolfe, and fellow Minneapolis indie favorites Bad Bad Hats. Kiss the Tiger’s transcendent, heart-forward rock and roll is right on time.
