‘Ireland will always be my home’: Cosha has introduced herself to the world
Cosha, aka Cassia O’Reilly.
Cosha is one of the bright new names releasing their debut album this summer. Mt Pleasant - named after the area in Dublin where Cassia O’Reilly was raised - is a heady, sexy swirl of RnB. Featuring collaborations with similarly tipped acts like Coby Sey and production from former Vampire Weekend alum Rostom, among others, Cosha has announced herself to the world.
Except it’s not the first time the world is hearing of her. Cosha used to go by the moniker Bonzai and was part of Mura Masa’s live band, touring the world and playing to tens of thousands at festivals around the world. She also provides vocals on one of his biggest tracks, ‘What If I Go?’ She’s circumspect now, looking back on that relationship. It was a fun time, she says, and a moment where things “started firing up a little bit”.
