Cassie Davis

Cassie Davis (born 1985) is an Australian singer and songwriter from Perth. Davis started writing and recording music as a child. In 2003, aged about 18, she travelled to the US with her older sister where she secured a four-album record deal. Her first single, "Like It Loud" was released in 2009 and reached No. 11 on the ARIA singles chart. It was followed the same year by her second single "Differently", which went gold, her third single, "Do it Again", and her debut album, Differently.

Davis also writes for other artists, including the track "Swagger Rich" for Warren G featuring Snoop Dogg, "Choose You" for Stan Walker, and "Take Me Away" for Marvin Priest featuring Wynter Gordon. In 2011, Davis started a production group with writer/producer Snob Scrilla. Together, they wrote and produced Havana Brown's "We Run The Night", Natalie Bassingthwaighte's "All We Have", "Braveheart" and "Welcome to the Jungle" by Neon Jungle, "Running Back" by Jessica Mauboy and "Choose You" by Stan Walker. In 2012, Davis teamed up to form the electro-pop-house trio Contra, which released the EP, "The 90s Are All That", in 2014. Davis co wrote the song "Get Higher" for Sophie (musician) in 2013.

Davis was born on 5 August 1985 in Windsor, New South Wales, the daughter of Steven and Meredith Davis. She was raised in Gnangara, Perth, Western Australia, the second child of a family of four. Her father is a pastor in Perth. Davis' parents introduced her to music.

My dad would always put instruments in my hands and encourage me to play music. He pretty much taught me how to sing, and when I was eight my parents bought me my first guitar. I had played piano before that, but it was when I got my guitar that I started to be become creative. I taught myself to play and started writing songs.

Davis recorded her first songs on her home computer at age twelve. In 1999, she did work experience at a local recording studio for three years and learned to use mics, song arranging, basic producing and how to make a good recording. Davis then enrolled at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA), where she studied sound engineering and production. In 2003, she travelled to the United States, accompanied by her elder sister, Emma, who handles the business side of their label, 12 Stones.

Emma and I started going back and forth between Australia and New York from the end of 2003. We were songwriting and knocking on doors. Looking back we were so naive to go there and think that we could make it. But all opportunities have come from us stepping out on a limb.
