The EP was recorded in one day and features new songs, quieter moments and B-sides from Sultan's latest studio album, Blackbird.

[7] Lauren Mitchell from Speaker TV said "Rousing and raw, Dan Sultan's latest delivery exudes his affinity for stripped back and simply beautiful songs."

adding "The EP oozes with a steadfastly soothing Australian sound, leaving an uncanny simplicity to shine through...

The striking nature of this EP not only showcases Sultan's versatility as a songwriter and musician, but also further solidifies his ability to glide seamlessly from band member to solo performer.

"[2] Ali Birnie said "Drawing you in from the very first note, Dirty Ground is a breathtaking collection of acoustic tunes."
