Milly Toomey, better known by the stage name Girli, is an English pop musician, based in London.[1][2][3][4] She has released a number of singles, that The Guardian described as veering "between PC Music, bubblegum pop, punk and rap, each one treading a line between catchy and deliberately discomforting."[2]

She performs with DJ Kitty (Rosalie Sylvia Fountain).[8]
