Girli


Milly Toomey, known professionally as Girli, is an English singer, songwriter and rapper. Based in London, she has released a number of singles and EPs, that The Guardian has described as veering "between PC Music, bubblegum pop, punk and rap, each one treading a line between catchy and deliberately discomforting." Much of her music is about feminism, sexuality, queer culture, and mental health. In April 2019, Girli released her debut studio album, Odd One Out, on PMR Records.
