Immensely proud of her heritage, Unflirt is a first generation immigrant, born and raised in
West London to Filipino parents. Her earliest musical experiences are performing karaoke
ballads of Whitney Houston, Stevie Wonder and The Beegees with her mum and dad - a staple
activity in every Filipino household. These happy memories aided her in forging her musical
identity. With no formal music training aside from basic guitar lessons imparted in her childhood
by her father, she began releasing music independently during lockdown. She bought herself a
microphone and a basic interface and began making music from the sanctuary of her bedroom
as a way to process her emotions during the pandemic at a particularly pivotal moment of her
adolescence. Unflirt notes the layered guitar techniques of King Krule and Jimi Hendrix as well
as the intimate lyrical style of traditional Brazilian and bossa nova tracks as her greatest
influences.
