The project of 23-year-old Åsa Söderqvist based in Gothenburg, Shitkid has its origins in 2015, when Söderqvist started recording on a half-broken computer while trying to learn her way around Garage Band as a way to deal with shyness and anxiety, and sounds anything but timid. As soon as the music was online, she turned away from it, focusing on acting and making the music for a short-film series named Stargazer by Linda Hedström.

Four months later she reached out to Stockholm label PNKSLM Recordings, and the first fruit of the collaboration was ShitKid’s official debut single Oh Please Be A Cocky Cool Kid, which was released earlier this month. The raucous 666 will be followed by the self-titled debut EP on April 1.
