Legendary female metal icon LITA FORD has
signed a worldwide deal with SPV/Steamhammer. Her new album
entitled "Living Like A Runaway" is tentatively set for a May 2012
release. Best known for her work with The Runaways and her solo career,
featuring hit singles "Kiss Me Deadly" and the Billboard charting
duet "Close My Eyes Forever" with Ozzy Osbourne, LITA is
ready to make a return to the throne as the queen of metal:
"SPV gets who I am, my work, and what it takes to bring
this project to life. I'm very excited to have them on my team," says LITA.
LITA spoke about her work with Gary Hoey on the
album and the meaning of the album's title:
"Gary Hoey and I wanted to approach this record by
getting back to basics. We want to strip away all the electronics and plug-ins
and keep it to vocals, guitar, bass, and drums. Going back to basics is going
back to what punk, metal and The Runways was for me.
"Living Like A Runaway" means freedom and
empowerment. To do what I want and to pursue my dreams while answering to no
one."
SPV A&R Representative/Product Manager Olly Hahn
commented on the signing of LITA FORD:
"When I bought "Dancin`On The Edge" back in
1984 I never thought that I would ever sign Lita Ford to a label. But a dream
of mine came true and it`s a huge honor for us at SPV/Steamhammer to have
one of the leading women in Rock n`Roll on our label."
