Mariae Cassandra is a 17-year-old upcoming Cebuana artist living in Perth, Western Australia. Known from her YouTube videos, to Instagram posts, to millions of views on her TikTok, to now an emerging Singer-Songwriter. She creates timeless and catchy songs in which once you listen to the lyrics, the harder you get hit.

Mariae would make up songs on her Voice Memos on any device and write down random ideas in a notebook. Her creativity and determination has lead her to the blessings in which she won Triple J’s Unearthed High’s 2024 competition, was Triple J’s Track of the Week, performed in the upcoming state renowned festival HyperFest, was nominated for SOTY for WAM, and sold out her first headlining show.

She writes all of her songs, implying the ideas of self-discovery, teenager-y, love, and even random thoughts that don’t make sense. “My song ‘Cassie’ is about not knowing where you are in life and trying to figure out if you’re okay with yourself and the world around you. My newest song ‘Million Billion Trillion’ captures what it’s like to have so much love with your closest friends. With only two singles out and a dream, Mariae Cassandra is the individual you have been waiting to see and hear in the music industry.
