Coming out of Vancouver, Cassandra Maze has spent more than a decade crafting a musical world full of emotional openness and immersive performance. A compelling performer, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter, Cassandra has earned her reputation through a blend of musical versatility and a magnetic stage presence that invites listeners into the atmosphere of each song.
Her artistic identity carries its own imagery too, shaped by a fascination with the moon and the colour red, details that hint at the expressive and slightly mysterious tone that shrouds her creative output. Cassandra draws from a wide array of influences that pair vintage elegance with a modern sense of rhythm and production. Her sound glides comfortably between pop, R&B and jazz stylings, forming a repertoire that dissolves genre boundaries to create an intoxicating sonic cocktail.
Within this blend, the influence of iconic women in music can be felt across her approach to melody, vocal expression and songwriting; artists such as Ella Fitzgerald, Alicia Keys and Amy Winehouse echo in her sound. First unveiling her original sound back in 2017 with the debut single “Wait,” she’s since delivered an incredible catalogue of work across multiple singles, two EPs and a remix by Fake Noises of her track “Something I Like.”
Now Cassandra opens the next chapter of her creative journey with the release of her new self-produced single titled “Superstars.” The track represents a particularly personal step forward, as she oversaw every aspect of its creation herself, guiding the song through each stage of its development, reinforcing her role as an independent artist shaping her own artistic direction. “Superstars” is an alternative pop anthem that deftly balances infectious songwriting with thoughtful context.
The message behind the track speaks directly to anyone who’s ever questioned their own potential and instead of presenting confidence as something reserved for the already successful, Cassandra frames it as something that exists within everyone waiting to be reclaimed. Opened by the soft flicker of acoustic guitar and soulful vocalisations, Cassandra’s silky voice floats in to spin elegant melodies carrying poignant lyricism about allowing yourself to shine, even during moments when self-belief feels distant.
Developing with the laid back pulse of grooving percussion and capped by dazzling vocal performance, “Superstars” sees Cassandra Maze serve up a catchy pop outing that’s memorable, energising and empowering all at once. As she continues to go from strength to strength as an exciting singer-songwriter on the rise, we can’t wait to see what she’s got in store for the rest of 2026 and beyond.
