Rainbow Kitten Surprise unveil “100 Summers” | A bold and honest preview of upcoming album ‘bones’
Rainbow Kitten Surprise channel personal transformation into sound on their latest single “100 Summers,” the newest offering from their forthcoming album bones, arriving September 26 via Atlantic Records. With the band’s signature blend of vulnerability and sonic adventure, the track captures a deeply introspective energy while building anticipation for what’s next.
The song’s heartfelt nature is anchored in the words of lead vocalist Ela Melo, who shares: “This is more raw than just about anything I’ve ever written, so, yeah, I sat there and cried with it for a second…” From the lyricism to the atmospheric instrumentation, the track pulses with authenticity and emotional release.
“100 Summers” continues Rainbow Kitten Surprise’s evolution as artists who are not afraid to speak the truth, even when it hurts. Melo adds, “You’re trying to make sense of what happened to you, and why, and ultimately, hopefully, forgive yourself and forgive whoever. So I think ‘100 Summers’ is doing that.”
As their Thanks For Coming Tour rolls on, the band has continued to draw massive crowds, including a fourth-time sold-out appearance at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. More than just live shows, the band has launched the Rainbow Kitten Surprise Fund alongside PLUS1, donating $1 from each ticket to causes including LGBTQ+ rights and mental health care.
After years of building a community through sound and honesty, Rainbow Kitten Surprise’s “100 Summers” gives fans a clear signal of the emotional depth that bones promises to deliver. With international dates set for Australia, UK, and Ireland, the band continues to expand their global reach—without ever losing their emotional center.
