Premiere: Dolly Dirtbag Releases a New Single “All This Time”

Dolly Dirtbag Releases a New Single “All This Time”. “All This Time,” is a melancholy, nostalgic song about yearning for and mourning the loss of a younger, more perfect version of yourself. Written, produced, and recorded by Dolly Dirtbag. She is at times bratty, at times wistful, at times enraged and her songs range from dreamy ballads to experimental sound poems to high energy pop, all with electronic production, catchy melodies, and an affinity for processed or altered vocals. Her diverse influences include Kate Bush, Caroline Polachek, Mitski, Oneohtrix Point Never, SOPHIE, and late 90s Eurodance/pop-infused trance.
In September 2018, Dolly self-released UNCOVERED, her debut EP, and in May 2019, she graduated from CalArts with an MFA in Music Technology. At CalArts, Dolly developed the Infinity Glove and Dolly’s Selfie Stick, two tools to help bring the character(s) to life in performance. In June 2020, Dolly released the single “Broken Shell,” and also opened her online shop, where she sells handmade and reworked clothing and jewelry. She plans to release three more singles in August and September 2021: “All This Time,” ” I Want Everyone to Like Me,” and “Too Little Too Late” before self-releasing her debut full-length album, Slug Dreams on September 14, 2021.

The Dolly pantheon plays with feminine tropes like the sexualized little girl, the bratty teenager, the scorned woman, but also includes a gender-neutral, calm, and heavenly slug and seeks to complicate stereotypes by refusing to occupy a stable persona. Dolly thrives most in areas of tension between supposed opposites or differentiated categories: in between characters, genres, genders, in between high and low-brow culture. The project also straddles the line between playful, over-the-top sarcasm and raw emotional vulnerability and in doing so speaks to the universal struggle to forge a self somewhere in between authenticity and performance.
