Kittie Bassist Trish Doan Dead At 31

Trish Doan, bassist for the Canadian metal band KITTIE, has died. She was only 31 years old.

The news of Doan‘s passing was first revealed by KITTIE on the group’s official Facebook page. The band wrote: “It is with immeasurable sadness that we share news of the passing of our sister and best friend Trish Doan.

“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.”

Doan joined KITTIE in 2005 and was in the band for two years before leaving in 2007 and then rejoining in 2012. She can be heard on KITTIE‘s 2006 EP “Never Again” and the 2007 full-length album “Funeral For Yesterday”.
