Kat Flint was born in Barbados and raised in Edinburgh and Aberdeen. At the age of 18 she moved to Edinburgh to study, where she joined the city’s acoustic scene and formed the band Gingergreen. She was an original member of the Edinburgh Sound Collective and also spent six months singing and playing percussion with folk group Scuff. In 2004 she moved to London.[citation needed]
Of her lyrics, she says, “I write lyrics about junkyard prostitutes, life in the fearsome crowd and the fact that your lover is 72.8% water. I was told once that I’m pretty good on guitar ‘for a girl’. I wasn’t sure if that was a compliment. I am an active campaigner against teenage angst and histrionics in music. I quite like train journeys because they’re one of the rare occasions when I can just sit and think.”[citation needed]
