After posting a vaguely ominous R.I.P. on her Instagram, fans were speculating that Flint Eastwood was calling it quits.

She quickly let it be known that “happy news” would be coming soon and has since done a full Chet Faker. The Detroit artist has announced that from here on out she’ll be rebranding to her real name, Jax Anderson.

'sometimes the only way to grow is to let something'

The singer-songwriter hopes it will be taken for the positive move that it is — it’s not a rejection of her past but rather an evolution and a mark of personal growth.

In a statement on her IG, re-introducing herself to the world, Jax said "the name flint eastwood has treated me well over the years, but it no longer feels like me."

"i feel like i finally have more I want to say & am ready to say it - this time purely as me. whether it’s music or photo or film or design or whatever, i’m ready. & as always, i hope you’ll come along with me.

"thank you thank you THANK YOU for caring. again, I couldn’t do this without you. thank you for believing in this ginger from detroit who decided to try & make some dreams happen. i hope you’re feeling inspired & that life feels open to you.

"ps. for anyone with flint eastwood tattoos... my bad."

To kick it all off, ‘Queen’ has been re-mastered and re-released under the Jax Anderson banner, with more news and releases promised "so soon".
