“Enemy Number One” by Calvyn Cass

To call Calvyn Cass enigmatic is isochronously accurate and somewhat misleading. On the one hand, he exudes a certain mystique, but on the other, he is gregarious and fluently expressive. As a young Singer/Songwriter, Cass is confident and vulnerable, and somehow merges both of these relatively divergent traits into his sound. Originally from South Africa, Calvyn now calls Canada home, and has gone on record on how there was a bit of culture shock with that transition. Cass has always embraced new experiences as a sort of fuel for his art.
