Creatives at Cork’s Kabin Studio have kicked off the World Cup celebrations with an epic new song in support of “local legend” Denise O'Sullivan and the rest of Ireland’s Women’s National Team.

Performed by talented youngsters Roisin Cullinane, Sophie McCarthy, Cara Cullen, Sophia, Katie and Lucy, it features lyrics such as:
“Come on you girls in green,
“Come on you girls in green,
“We shout!
“Do it for the girls out playing in the streets and parks and greens.”
The track highlights that football “is not just for the boys” and captures the sense of pride felt in Cork and across the country for the women’s team with lyrics such as:
“Up the girls,
“We couldn’t be any prouder.”
The catchy tune also name-checks local legend Denise O’Sullivan, who hails from Knocknaheeny where The Kabin Studio is based.
The music video, available to view on The Kabin Studio’s Facebook page and on YouTube, was shot by SwaniGuess with additional footage by Derek Coughlan.

The studio provides a space for young people who want to write, record, sing, rap, and rehearse.

Ireland kicked off their Women's World Cup campaign against co-hosts Australia at 11am Irish time this morning.
The 2023 tournament is being co-hosted by Australia and New Zealand.
