The hauntingly romantic single features a Halloween-themed video
Multi-hyphenate artist Kat Von D — known for her history-making tattoos, television shows, best-selling books, and influential beauty empire — is returning to her roots with a mesmerizing new single “Vampire Love,” the first single off her forthcoming album, expected to release next year. Co-written by the legendary Shep Solomon (Britney Spears, Kelly Clarkson, Celine Dion) and Fernando Garibay (Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars, Kylie Minogue), this goth-disco track delves into the depths of human desire for eternal love. “Vampire Love” is accompanied by a captivating Halloween-themed music video directed by horror maestro Ryan Valdez, featuring model Julien Crane and renowned Spanish artist Vinila Von Bismark.
Before achieving fame in the tattoo and beauty industry, Kat Von D devoted hours of her daily life to music, making it her first love and creative outlet, whilst her classical training and appreciation for music of all genres formed the foundation of her artistic journey. Her music now resonates within the goth/synth-wave genre. The new single follows the success of her debut album, Love Made Me Do It, and the Exorcisms EP, solidifying her status as a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.
“‘Vampire Love’ is a vibey, goth-disco jam about our desire for eternal love,” Von D shares. “I absolutely loved getting to write it with the legendary Shep Solomon. I saw the idea for the music video in my head as we were writing the song, and it was so cool to see it come to life.”
Kat Von D’s musical journey took a significant turn when she studied singing with the renowned Ken Tamplin, dedicating herself to daily vocal training. In 2012, she began a collaborative partnership with Grammy Award-nominated legend Linda Perry, and her songwriting skills blossomed. Kat continued to craft emotionally charged songs while sitting at her piano, pouring raw emotions into her music.
“Vampire Love” marks a powerful return to the music scene for Kat Von D, offering a hauntingly beautiful soundscape that captivates listeners with its darkly romantic allure.
