Killarney singer-songwriter Lillie Foley launches her debut EP, ‘In Between’, on all major streaming platforms today, Friday May 15.

The 23-year-old artist first began releasing music in 2025 with the singles ‘Someday’ and ‘That’s Life’.

Her new project features five original tracks that mark a personal chapter in her songwriting, focusing on the experiences and uncertainties of life in your twenties.

“This project is really about feeling stuck between stages of life,” Lillie said. “At this age, there’s so much pressure to know exactly what you’re doing, and these songs came from not always having those answers.”

Through her lyrics and storytelling, the EP captures the process of navigating adulthood and personal growth. ‘In Between’ is available to stream now on Spotify, Apple Music, and other major digital platforms.
