Dirty Blonde are the hotly-tipped blonde-bombshell, Manchester alt-rock band
fronted by Ailis Mackay and Hayley Tait, on this debut vinyl release they bring
together their frst 2 EPs in one release
The duo burst onto the Manchester music scene in 2023 with their debut EP Favourite
Record (Side B), earning them a reputation for punchy guitar work, heartfelt lyrics, and
powerful live performances. Drawing on varied infuences from indie, pop and classic
rock, the duo bring a fresh yet nostalgic take on alt-rock.
On their latest EP Looking For Trouble (Side A), Dirty Blonde prove that authenticity is
their signature sound. Tracks like 'Adore Me?' and 'Polly' carry a sly charm, serving as
the "nicer cousins" to the ferce anthems 'Checkmate' and 'Rush', while previous single
'Northern Twang' stands as the powerful matriarch anchoring it all. Writing the EP was
more than just a creative process; it was cathartic, offering a rare moment of
refection. Dirty Blonde reminds us that women in rock aren't just part of the scene,
they're redefning it.
Tracks: Northern Twang / Polly / Rush / Adore Me? / Checkmate / Part 1 / Run (When
I Tell You) / Come Over / Don't Cry (It Doesn't Suit You) / Favourite Record
