Cosha

Cosha, born Cassia O'Reilly, represents a pivotal bridge between the Dublin electronic scene and the global alternative R&B movement. Originally performing under the moniker Bonzai, her early work was characterized by high-energy, industrial-tinged dance-pop and collaborations with producers like Mura Masa.

Her rebranding to Cosha marked a significant sonic evolution toward a more mature, 'liquid' R&B sound that prioritizes atmosphere and vocal texture over club-ready aggression. Her 2021 debut album, Mt. Pleasant, solidified this identity, blending neo-soul sensibilities with avant-pop production. Critically, she is lauded for her ability to maintain a sense of Irish identity within a genre often dominated by North American tropes. Her influence web connects the minimalist soul of artists like Shygirl and Kelela with the melodic warmth of Raveena. She occupies a unique cultural space as a producer-performer who maintains total creative control over her aesthetic, resulting in a discography that feels like a singular, evolving conversation about intimacy and self-discovery.
