Her latest self-released singles, Leave Molly mAlone and Inspiration, reflect the value of activism through music and songwriting (see music/social media links below). Her key inspirations are Tracy Chapman, Joan Baez and Bob Dylan for the way they manipulate lyrics. Tilly busked on Grafton Street (Dublin) from September 2022-May 2025, and has been performing at festivals, gigs, concerts and open mics since the age of 11. Tilly is also the founder of the 'Leave Molly mAlone' campaign, for which she harnessed my busking platform to advocate for gender equity, highlighting how the mistreatment of Dublin's famous Molly Malone statue promotes sexist cultural norms. The campaign received global media attention, including coverage in The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Telegraph, Good Morning Britain and RTE Prime Time TV. She navigated the media and collaborated with Dublin City Council to secure permanent statue modifications and improved female representation in culture. International Women's Day marked the release of Tilly's version of 'Molly Malone', with two original verses in an ode to the campaign. She has also just been nominated for the Harper's Bazaar 'Women of the Year' Awards 2025 for her campaign work. Cosima is a London-based singer, songwriter and pianist, blending elements of soul, pop and R&B into a sound that's both intimate and expressive. Together with her band, she creates a sound where raw lyrics and soulful melodies meet a fun and vibrant energy.
