OXLIP is Northern Irish-born singer-songwriter Jayne Trimble’s moniker for the stage. The name is inspired by wildflowers and woodlands evocative of the darkly-windswept British Isles, alongside a host of literary archetypes ripped straight from the Brontë era. OXLIP says, “I create music because of the healing, transformative power I believe it has.”

OXLIP’s Your Mother Was a Peacock was nominated for Emerging Artist of the Year by the 2022 Canadian Folk Music Awards. It was compared vocally and tonally to Phoebe Bridgers and The Weather Station and was coined as ‘The Future of Folk’ by Folk-Alley in the US. Much of her music stylistically is a nod to her unmistakable traditional folk influence. Like a true Appalachian Mountain ballad, her songs are simple, with less than simple content- Death and the Metaphysical being some of the topics she likes to sing about.
