The release party for ‘Brickwall’ was also a celebration of Irish female artists. What was it like putting that together?

I’ve talked to a few women about the Irish music industry, and there’s a common theme of not being taken seriously, not being respected. Being in the studio and the person that would walk in would think you’re somebody’s girlfriend, rather than an artist. I’ve always wanted to vouch for women, and for us to have a space to be heard.

What artists are you influenced by?

When I was ten, there was part of me that was really into 2000s-era R&B. And then the other side of my childhood was very much rock, because of my dad. Actually, I’m trying to implement more rock now - I really want to make a rock album.

You’re a graphic designer as well as a musician. How does visual art impact your music?

It's a hand-in-hand thing. Since I started putting music out I’ve noticed once I finish a song, my head instantly goes to, ‘What do I visualise with this?’ And then sometimes, I’ll be like, ‘Oh wait, maybe I can add this kind of sound effect’, because I see it at the beach. That’s one of my favourite parts of making music, because I think it really adds to it.

You’re able to convey so much emotion in your voice. Is that exhausting for you?

It’s more liberating than exhausting. I started making music to get my emotions out - I still do. I’d be going through a situation in life, and nine times out of ten, I would freestyle it. I’d say 80% of my musical work is freestyled because I do it in the moment and it comes out naturally. So it’s liberating – it’s never exhausting, thank god. That wouldn’t be fun.
