We're thrilled to bring you the EP from London-based alt-pop artist Dirt Flirt, the brazen solo project of multi-instrumentalist and former emo artist Kit Eaton-Kent, featuring a self-titled debut EP that makes a significant impact. At 13 minutes over six tracks, this bold collection is a fearless, emotionally raw dive into queer identity, messy breakups, and the beautifully untidy contradictions of one's early 20s.
Recorded by Redshank and penned completely by Eaton-Kent, "Dirt Flirt" is no ordinary music but a confession, a mirrorball of feelings spinning in the dark. From the synth-drenched heartache of "Necklace" to the euphoric-angsty "Boyfriend," every song sounds like a bite-sized coming-of-age movie dressed in that shimmering alt-pop sheen. Standouts like "Don't Go" and "Dramatic" reveal Dirt Flirt's special knack for uniting acerbic vulnerability with irresistible hooks and tunes that both hurt and thump.
Left-of-center sonically, "Dirt Flirt" nods to The Japanese House and 070 Shake, but never at the expense of its own identity. It's playful. It's brooding. It's devastating. And above all, it's real. Whether you're weeping all the way home on the night bus or heartbroken, jiving around your bedroom, Dirt Flirts is here for all of it.
It's already picking up steam on the biggest Spotify playlists, from New Music Friday UK and All New Pop to Soda, and makes it clear that Eaton-Kent is kicking the door down.
