From Sleazeroxxx.com
Many people might not know that Dirty Skirty frontman Luke Stephens works as a teaching tennis professional for a living and was a very good tennis player growing up. Dirty Skirty released the albums Long Live Rock N’ Roll (2010), which landed the #6 spot on Sleaze Roxx’s Top Ten Albums of 2010, and Rebel (2014). Stephens is also not scared to poke fun at himself.

Rock N' Roll Leader
August 18, 2017 :
We are very excited to announce that DIRTY SKIRTY will be performing at this year's 80s In The Park along with Jackyl, Winger, and Lynch Mob. To coincide with this exciting news the band has released a song upon you titled, "Rock N' Roll Leader." You may stream it for a limited time and purchase it right away.
Be sure to check out the interview with singer Luke Stephens and drummer Timmy Vaughn over at sleazeroxx.com!
Florida based sleaze rockers Dirty Skirty have released a new song entitled “Rock N’ Roll Leader” which can be streamed for a limited time on the band’s website (see bottom of website pages).
Dirty Skirty lead vocalist Luke Stephens and drummer Timmy Vaughn recently spoke exclusively to Sleaze Roxx about the new track and the band’s plans for the future to follow up Long Live Rock N’ Roll (2010) and Rebel (2014).
In terms of the new single, Stephens stated: “”Rock N’ Roll Leader” is what it’s called. The past two to three years, I have had some thoughts about someone who played in the band who was a dear friend and now that friendship has withered away. Like anything else that I write the lyrics come right from the heart. Whether it’s been about drowning yourself in booze, riding into the sunset, or girls there aren’t really any lines I write that don’t have an element of truth to it. This one is a self reflection of what the band is and we are. Collectively, it is Dirty Skirty speaking directly to one person in particular. The words are represented to serve as a stamp in time while at the same time a continuation of Skirty forever.”

Lurking in the waters
July 10, 2017
Hello lads!!! Dirty Skirty is still here for you although we haven't played shows much and updated our sites you can still enjoy us on a daily basis. Just pop in your Rebel or Long Live Rock N' Roll album and it's like we are right there with you. We just did a gig with 4/5 original members in our old watering hole and had an absolute blast doing so.
Lots and lots of songs are being worked on with some familiar names in the band of old and Carson and ...Timmy are still part of the family as well. We will find the right time before the end of the year to make some noise for you.
We love you all
DIRTY SKIRTY
Band performs in front of thousands in Cape Coral
October 16, 2015
DIRTY SKIRTY took an opportunity and they not only took advantage of it, but they took themselves to a level in which they have never achieved. After playing at 80s In The Park along with Autograph, Lita Ford, and Slaughter the band was asked to open for rock n' rollers Quiet Riot. While they are focusing on new material for their 3rd album, the boys could not turn down a chance to play Bike Night in Cape Coral, FL. They blazed through their anthems Ride, Dirty Angel, and Red Light Go with the energy you would expect from a seasoned act who plays arenas. It was during the ballad Spill Your Heart Out Tonight that they slowed it down enough to really pull in the audience prior to the closer of Long Live Rock N' Roll. Be on the lookout for new music and big shows from DIRTY SKIRTY in 2016.

Dirty Skirty parts ways with bassist
April 30, 2015
In an exciting upcoming summer filled with big headlining shows in South Florida and festivals the band has done something they never have....fired a member. Bassist Jeremy Slusher was an early part of the reincarnation of Dirty Skirty. However, Jeremy refused to make the sacrifices necessary and illustrate the professional attitude necessary to be in a rock band. The band will utilize it's extended family tree of Woody Harvey (Blow It Up) and local player Russ "Screaming Man" (Outlaw Tendencies) while they search for a permanent bassist. The band will not miss a beat and they wish Jeremy the best. Be sure to keep your eyes out for more Dirty Skirty dates in Florida this summer!

Dirty Skirty picks up the pace. A new single is on the way!
September 16, 2014
2014 has turned out to be a pleasant year of surprises for the boys of Dirty Skirty. The band that essentially sat dormant for a solid 3 years (aside from bi yearly reunion gig) is back in the ring playing rigs and making noise around the South Florida music scene. In April they released their sophomore album, REBEL, to the masses of the world. Thanks to adding iTunes and Spotify to the mix of distributing the albums the band has already outsold their successful LONG LIVE ROCK N' ROLL record.
Shortly after seeing the independent success of Rebel, front-man Luke Stephens knew what had to happen next; a live band. While mainstays Stovall, Stephens, and Garnell had recorded on every song for Dirty Skirty, the geographical location of the 3 limited their live ability. The new members have brought new life and flavor to the band and the reunions have now become a very strong union. Says guitar play Carson Wayne, "the scene here has long awaited a great original rock band and that is why we need to do it. I have been in this scene forever and these songs are flat out better than anything here in a while." Wayne and fellow guitar player Kenny Baker give the band the dueling live guitar sound that Dirty Skirty has always needed to make the most out of their live performances.
While most "local bands" are either playing covers, reggae, or punk DIRTY SKIRTY sticks to their guns and gives rock the right to breath new life. "I'm not in this to fuck around. We are gonna do this big and do this for the long run." -Kenny Baker, guitar. While the band came out of the gates in June swinging playing every bar show they can get their hands on, they are working on a monthly highly promoted venue gig and to open up for Nationals and do festivals. They have found home bars in Connolly's (Royal Palm Beach, FL) and Piper's (Greenacres, FL), but other than those the guys are going to be sticking to solid venues and large scale gigs.
The band will be releasing info on more gigs soon. Stephens is playing a intimate unplugged performance to his beloved Tallhassee, FL on September 19 at Club Atmosphere where he will have a party for the Rebel album. After that gig the band will release more show dates, a new single, and new photos of the band all at DIRTYSKIRTY.COM.

Dirty Skirty Lives!
June 15, 2014
The band that was ready to call it a day after their debut album hung around and gave you a second helping this May with their follow-up record "Rebel." Now after the overwhelming worldwide response frontman Luke Stephens rounded up new members of the Dirty Skirty family where he currently resides in South Florida. Through the use of Craigslist Stephens was contacted by several local musicians. After auditioning 2 drummers, 7 guitar players, and 2 bassists Dirty Skirty welcomes new members so they can once again be a live act on a regular basis. Guitarists Kenny Baker and Carson Wayne join drummer Louie McDaniels and bassist Jeremy Slusher along with Stephens on vocals. While on their records the 2 guitar sound has always been a Skirty staple, guitar play Jeff Allen usually had to carry all of the weight live. Now fans can enjoy the music the way it was intended live. The band will be gigging regularly this summer from Miami to West Palm Beach and expanding their shows all over Florida as well. By the time fall rolls around look for Dirty Skirty to embark on a month long North America tour in support of Rebel.
