This work explores stylistic triggers for backdoor attacks in the audio domain: dynamic transformations of malicious samples through guitar effects. We first formalize stylistic triggers -- currently missing in the literature. Second, we explore how to develop stylistic triggers in the audio domain by proposing JingleBack. Our experiments confirm the effectiveness of the attack, achieving a 96% attack success rate. Our code is available in https://github.com/skoffas/going-in-style.
