Listen to CADENCE's latest singles

CADENCE is a 21-year-old independent pop artist from the Indianapolis area whose music explores the emotional landscape of relationships, growth, and self-discovery.

Her connection to music began in early childhood. She spent entire days singing and dancing to her CD player, moving so constantly that she eventually ruined nearly every CD in the house. She began performing locally in grade school and later sang with a band in her early teens, building stage experience from a young age.

That instinct matured into direction. CADENCE ultimately left college to pursue music full time and released her debut single, “That’s Wild,” in September 2025. Today, she writes from lived experience, creating songs that balance vulnerability with confidence. Her sound blends contemporary pop with immersive production and emotionally direct vocals.

Creating music independently alongside her father, CADENCE continues building a growing catalog and audience, connecting with listeners who see their own stories reflected in her lyrics.
