Luvcat’s new track “Lipstick” fuses kink, cabaret, and catharsis with a music video nod to classic cinema.
Rising femme-fatale Luvcat unveils her newest single “Lipstick”, a subversive slow-burn that unpacks kink, romantic devotion, and the fragile art of surrender. Blending shadowy Parisian glam with alt-British cool, it’s Luvcat’s most cinematic track yet.
“Lipstick is a song about love and kink,” she says. “The desire to please and feel like a little doll to be played with but shown tenderness and devotion in equal measure.”
After meeting a man who called her “doll,” she wrote the track—later enlisting him to play drums. Its visual counterpart, co-directed with Ollie Bradley-Baker, is a surreal homage to Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, starring Luvcat as a haunted wind-up doll.
“I used to dress up as her as a kid… a wind-up doll come to life to terrorize the town.”
Following breakout singles “Matador,” “He’s My Man,” and “Love and Money,” Luvcat has amassed 25M+ streams, and earned early praise from Wonderland, Clash, Rolling Stone UK, and more.
With a cult fanbase and global intrigue mounting, Luvcat’s 30+ summer festival slots and sold-out US underplays mark a thrilling new era. “Lipstick” launches with a pop-up watch party in LA, with more details to follow.
