flowerovlove has officially announced her debut album, MINI SKIRT WARRIOR, arriving August 28 via Capitol Records. Alongside the announcement, the 21-year-old singer-songwriter has unveiled a dreamy new single, “KISS KISS KISS,” offering another glimpse into the project.
The album’s title introduces flowerovlove’s alter ego, a confident version of herself whose clothing becomes armor as she navigates the transition from girlhood to womanhood. The record explores themes of first love, heartbreak, self-discovery and growing up, making it her most personal release to date.
“A lot of this album is based on first times,” flowerovlove shared. “First times falling in love, first times getting to know yourself, first times falling out of love, first times realizing girlhood is so important.”
Leading the announcement is “KISS KISS KISS,” a sparkling slice of pop that captures the excitement and fantasy of young romance. On the track, flowerovlove imagines a picture-perfect love story, singing about candlelit dinners, winter embraces and dreaming of forever. She also directed the song’s playful official music video, which features a single-take kissing scene with a surprise guest appearance.
The new single follows previously released tracks “In My Victoria’s Secret” and “American Wedding,” both of which will appear on MINI SKIRT WARRIOR. “American Wedding” previously earned a place on Rolling Stone’s Songs You Need to Know playlist, while “In My Victoria’s Secret” showcased the singer’s infectious blend of playful pop melodies and sharp songwriting.
