While residing in Halifax, Cochrane studied Music Business at the Nova Scotia Community College in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia and began performing under her own name in 2009. In addition to her solo work, she held a role in indie rock band Gamma Gamma Rays from 2008 to 2010, and contributed guest vocals on Rich Aucoin's EP We're All Dying To Live (Sonic Records, 2011). At the EP's release show in Halifax, Cochrane joined Rich for a duet of the song "Undead Pt. 1: Estrangement". Just weeks before moving to Ontario by train in August 2010, she released Darling, Darling, a full-length album recorded at SOMA Electronic Music Studios in Chicago, Illinois. The record features guest performer Mike Kinsella (of Owen, American Football) on percussion and additional guitar. In the same month, Gamma Gamma Rays released the LP Beeps, recorded at the Echo Chamber in Halifax. The group disbanded after Cochrane's departure. In late 2011, she released the EP Pretty Alright. The EP reached the No. 5 on the national folk chart for campus and community radio and No. 153 of the Top 200 in Canada for the month of December 2011. 2014–present: Breakthrough with Little Sway; Heirloom

After three years of living in the Windsor/Detroit region, she released her second full-length studio album, Little Sway, in January 2014. The album carries the influence of jazz, soul, bossa nova, Motown, and R&B. The album reached No. 30 on the National Top 50 in February 2014 on campus and community radio. Cochrane placed in the Top 10 nationwide in the 2014 CBC Searchlight Contest (The Hunt for Canada's Best New Artist), being one of five artists selected by public vote. She represented the Windsor region in the contest with "And Still We Move", the first single from Little Sway. Her song "A Damn Shame" from Little Sway was placed in "Is the Better Part Over? ", the 21st episode of the season 3 of ABC's Nashville, in 2015. In 2016, her song "Pretty Words" went viral on Spotify, receiving 12 million plays. Little Sway, with "Sleep in the Wild" as lead single, was released in Italy in 2018. Cochrane released "Hungry Love", the first single from her album Heirloom, on 7 January 2020. The album was released 29 February 2020. Since then, Cochrane has released two singles: "Can We Go Back", on 14 August 2020, and "Why", on 23 September 2021, whose crowdfunded music video was animated by Sheridan College student Delaney Beaudoin.
