Stitched Up Heart is an American hard rock band on Another Century Records.[1] The band was formed in 2010 in Los Angeles by singer Alecia "Mixi" Demner.

History

The group was founded in 2010 by vocalist Alecia 'Mixi' Demner. Later joined by drummer James Decker, guitarist Merritt Goodwin, bassist Randy Mathias and guitarist Nick Bedrosian.[2]

After several years spent developing their sound, recording demos and playing in local clubs, in 2015 Stitched Up Heart was signed to Another Century Records, a division of Century Label Group. A new single, "Finally Free," was released in late 2015 and eventually reached No. 19 in America's Active Rock Radio Chart.[3] A follow-up single, "Monster," was unveiled April 29, 2016[4] and Billboard.com premiered the song “Event Horizon” on June 3, 2016.[5] The band's major label debut, the album Never Alone was released on June 17, 2016 and debuted in the Top 10 of both the Billboard Heatseeker and Hard Rock charts.[1][6]

In early 2017, the ensemble toured with American hard rock band Letters from the Fire.[7] After two months off the road, Stitched Up Heart headlined a sell-out concert at The Knitting Factory in Boise Idaho on Friday April 21, 2017 promoted by local radio station 100.3 The X.[8]
