Former BUTCHER BABIES vocalist Carla Harvey has announced the touring lineup of her new project THE VIOLENT HOUR. Joining Harvey in the group are Kiana De Leon on lead guitar, Allie Kay on rhythm guitar, Jewel Steele on bass and Sasha De Leon on drums.
Kiana and Sasha previously played together in the PANTERA tribute band FAR BEYOND HOSTILE and the covers project VIXEN VENDETTA.
Harvey commented: "I've dreamed of having an all girl band my whole life. After a long search I finally found them. Four incredible women who share the same drive, passion, and fire that fuels me. We are the @theviolenthourband and we are your new favorite band."
Harvey has released two singles from THE VIOLENT HOUR so far: "Sick Ones" and "Hell Or Hollywood". The latter track, which was made available in June via Megaforce Records, features PANTERA guitarist and BLACK LABEL SOCIETY frontman Zakk Wylde. The accompanying video was shot at West Hollywood's iconic Rainbow Bar & Grill, a location that literally was the reason Carla moved at a young age to Hollywood from her Detroit home.
Directed by Industralism Films' Vincent Cordero (BLACK VEIL BRIDES, Kat Von D),the "Hell Or Hollywood" video explores Harvey's experiences and emotions from when she first moved to Los Angeles, and has been described as a "swampy metal induced rocker" that captures the chaotic, gritty, and euphoric aspects of her L.A. journey.
BUTCHER BABIES announced their split with Harvey in July 2024, saying in a statement that "Carla has been an integral part of our journey, bringing her unique talent, passion, and energy to the band," and wishing "her all the best in her future endeavors."
Carla, who co-founded BUTCHER BABIES in 2010 with fellow vocalist Heidi Shepherd, confirmed her exit from the band in a separate post, saying that she was "super proud" of her work with BUTCHER BABIES and adding that she was "not done making music and performing."
In the fall of 2023, BUTCHER BABIES completed a European tour without Carla, who sat out the trek in order to undergo emergency surgery on her left eye.
