Reece - Do Me Dirty (Official Video) + 10 Questions

 

Rising pop artist Reece has released ‘Do Me Dirty’ - the first single from his upcoming debut album via Platoon - alongside the corresponding music video. Self-described as ‘kitchen sink pop’, the song and video perfectly convey the confusion and simultaneous excitement of the modern dating scene.

Daring and unafraid of sonically, visually, and lyrically unique choices, Reece channels the passion in his music to mirror nostalgic, relatable moments – creating a magical connection with his audience who can relate through their personal inflections.

“‘Do Me Dirty’ is a tongue in cheek song about my laying down my expectations for someone if they try to pursue me.” Says Reece about the single.

His debut album and follow up to his 2019 EP I’m Not Sure Yet, is his most magnetic project to date and focused on honesty, love, experience, and heartbreak, all introduced in this single.

Shot by director Candice Lawler with David Rowe serving as DP and editor, the video was shot entirely in Los Angeles.
