Track of the Day: Cosha, 'Glow'

The focus track from Cosha’s latest EP MurMurs casts a lush, loose-jointed aura that smoulders with sunlit possibilities and self-assured catharsis. ‘Glow’ sees the Wicklow-born artist dialling into an insatiable new groove, reprising an effusive, sensual point of view over a propulsive R&B and electropop framework.

Letting go of the shadows of the past, ‘Glow’ serves as a surging and hopeful closer, embodying the main sentiment of the EP: “we experience pain to understand the contrast of what joy actually is—and what we came here to do is to experience joy.”

“I liked the idea that ‘murmurs’ are always there humming along whether you want to tune into it or not, like a shadow following you,” Cosha says.

Multi-faceted singer-songwriter and producer Cosha released the new EP Murmurs earlier this month, her first project since the critically acclaimed album, Mt. Pleasant. The EP’s cover was shot by Viðar Logim, who famously shot Björk’s recent Vogue feature.

To celebrate the release of her latest EP, Cosha performs The Workman’s Cellar in Dublin on Tuesday, 28th May, followed by a gig at London’s The Lower Third in Soho on 31st May. For tickets to her show at The Workman’s Cellar, please see here.
