Kíba (Caela Murphy) is an Irish indie-pop and synth-wave artist from Tramore, County Waterford whose musical journey began in childhood among the concertina, tin whistle, and bodhrán. A trained classical pianist, she was writing original songs by age thirteen—and released her first single, “Lost at Sea,” at sixteen to support Focus Ireland.
She refined her performance in Tramore’s local music venues before graduating from BIMM Dublin, where she further honed her blend of indie-pop and cinematic sound. By nineteen, she was composing music for student films and scored her first feature by twenty-one.
