Cassie Graves

Cassie Graves is a British singer-songwriter with African American and Irish heritage, boasting powerhouse vocals, and a pop sound inspired by neo-soul and 90s R&B.

Cassie was born in South East London to immigrant parents from Dublin and Texas, raised in South-East London by her Irish mother, and began to sing at an early age, playing instruments the minute she could walk. At 7 Cassie started lessons to play the piano, violin and guitar, and started to write her own songs, building the foundations of her art today.

At 17, Cassie set up her YouTube channel, posting music and vlogs to a small audience, coming to prominence by collaborating with other users such as popular Indonesian producer NSG, her collaborator on 2010’s Fairy Tales (and the popular remix by producer DTX).

Cassie went on to perform across the UK, releasing music while appearing in media across the world before heading off on a month-long tour in Germany, returning in 2015 to celebrate the release of FAQ Vol. 1, a collaborative EP with artist and producer 8-2nds, at a one-night-only launch event in Hackney.

Following the EP, Cassie announced a hiatus to focus on university, finishing up right in time for COVID-19 lockdowns to close down venues – some for good – so continued limited releases and live performances on TikTok, Facebook and Instagram.

Cassie is also known globally for her advocacy of Trimethylaminuria awareness, having appeared in international media since 2014, most notably in Princess Productions' 2016 TV show Medical Mysteries on UK's Channel 5, and in print, television, radio and online publications across the globe.

Cassie also appeared as a contestant on The Chase in 2023!
