A cold street, a lone musician, and a melody that refuses to disappear. Quiet Strength follows the quiet resilience of a man playing through winter’s silence — not for applause, not for sympathy, but because the music is the one thing that still moves.

This song lives in the space between observation and emotion: the moment you see someone’s struggle and feel it echo inside you. Sparse, cinematic, and intimate, it captures the kind of strength that doesn’t shout — it endures.

🌙 A song for still nights, soft reflections, and the people who keep going even when no one sees.

Quiet Strength

Our Christmas album "Ho For The Holidays" is out now! Look for it!

What happens when you take a group of prostitutes and turn them into popstars? You get a group pf "popstitutes"!

We are Eden's Slutz, from Las Vegas, Nevada. We're a new kind of girl group, comprised of legal sex workers. Our songs are fun, funny, cheeky, sexy and downright naughty.

Our story began with our manager, Madam Eden Slutz, who owns a licensed brothel outside of Las Vegas, called "Slutopia". When the 2020 global pandemic hit, Eden needed to find another way to keep her girls in business. She decided to venture into another form of prostitution: the music industry. With modern innovations such as autotune and AI, now anyone can be a popstar. From prostitutes to "popstitutes", get ready to "Slut It Up" with Eden's Slutz!

Eden's Slutz are:

-Chantelle: "Barbie Slut". 
    She's a living doll.

-Gizelle: "Picante Slut". 
    A spicy and saucy woman.

-Janelle: "Sakura Slut". 
    A exotic fragrant blossom from the far east.

-Kristelle: "Cocoa Slut". 
    A warm, earthy, velvety smooth tall drink.

-Raquel: "Redheaded Slut". 
    She's sweet but a little tart and packs a bite.
