Luvcat Unveils “Lipstick,” a Dark Fantasy of Kink, Power, and Play
Luvcat returns with “Lipstick,” a provocative single with a surrealist video inspired by childhood and subversion.
Luvcat emerges from her EU tour with “Lipstick,” a sultry new single that cuts through the indie landscape with theatrical grit. Set against a backdrop of kink, control, and romantic devotion, “Lipstick” is both playful and confessional.
“It’s a song about love and kink,” says Luvcat. “The desire to please and feel like a little doll… but shown tenderness and devotion in equal measure.”
The accompanying video, co-directed with Ollie Bradley-Baker, channels Chitty Chitty Bang Bang’s “Doll on a Music Box.”
“I used to dress up as her as a kid… a wind-up doll come to life to terrorize the town.”
Luvcat’s mythos has grown since debut single “Matador,” followed by “He’s My Man” and “Love and Money.” With 25M+ streams and backing from The Independent, Clash, Rolling Stone UK, and NME, she’s been named one of 2025’s top 3 artists to watch.
She’s set for 30+ festivals, including Glastonbury and Reading & Leeds, plus NY/LA shows and secret pop-ups—starting with a Lipstick launch party in LA.
