Kingston, Ontario’s Kasador are thrilled to announce the release of their brand new EP, Kasador I. Featuring a powerful grunge anthem, “Butterflies,” the EP ushers in a bold new era for the band, blending raw energy with introspective lyricism.

This collection of songs marks the band’s strongest and most confident work to date, following their successful 2023 album Youth and years of touring across Canada and the US. With Kasador I, the band embraces creative freedom, allowing their personalities to shine through their music in its purest form.

The album’s focus track, “Butterflies,” is a thundering grunge anthem that showcases Kasador at their most powerful. Inspired by frontman Cameron Wyatt’s experience with tachysensia, a condition that distorts reality and causes time to feel like it’s moving quickly, “Butterflies” embodies the struggle of hiding inner turmoil while trying to carry on. 

“Everyone has difficult emotions and struggles, but finding the strength to be vulnerable and forthcoming about personal struggles can be so, so difficult,” says Wyatt.

“You’ll find yourself in beautiful and unexpected places when you give yourself total creative freedom,” Wyatt shares. “The quicker you can figure out the identity of a song and what makes it special and then commit to serving that, the better.”

Kasador recorded Kasador I with a newfound sense of camaraderie and creative confidence. “It was the easiest and most enjoyable experience we’ve had to date [recording],” the band reflects. “We went in with a strong collective vision and a trust in ourselves and each other.”

The band’s commitment to authenticity and raw energy shines through on Kasador I. “We have a stronger identity and self-belief in what we’re doing, and that confidence is what has allowed us to break free from some of the rules we might’ve imposed upon ourselves in the past,” Wyatt explains.
