Josephine Sillars is a musician who writes “protest pop” music (BBC Radio Scotland). Over the past few years, she gained recognition performing with her band “The Manic Pixie Dreams”, but has since dropped her alter-egos and got personal and political with the release of her 2021 EP “Desperate Characters”, funded by Help Musicians. The EP was described as “compelling and expansive” (Tenement TV) and as “hands down one of the finest Scottish releases of 2021” (Small Music Scene), with lead single “Enemy” selected as Track of the Week for BBC Introducing in West Yorkshire and as 71 out of 100 Top Tunes in Scotland 2021 (The Herald). Inspired by trip-hop and art-pop, her new releases have been likened to Bjork and Fiona Apple. Her recent single “I’ll See You When I See You” was released via Come Play With Me on 1/12/21.
Josephine Sillars has performed in Sofar Inverness, Sofar Glasgow, and Sofar Sheffield.
