Cassy Brooking, known by her stage name Cassyette, is an English singer-songwriter.

In 2022, she toured Europe with Sum 41 and supported My Chemical Romance on their comeback tour.

Early life
Born in Chelmsford, Cassyette attended Brentwood Ursuline Convent High School. She studied Music at the University of Westminster.
Cassyette began her career as a DJ and songwriter. After university, she "became a staple on the London live circuit".
Career
Songwriting for various artists and bands alongside her own music, Cassyette merges pop and rock inspired sounds with modern-day electronic pop. Cassyette's first solo debut, Push n Pull, was labelled "a seriously well-crafted, addictive gem that should underline Cassyette's reputation as not only one of London's most relevant new artists, but a consummate beat maker and songwriter" by Niji Magazine.
Cassyette made her festival debut at the 2021 Download Pilot festival, also making a guest appearance alongside Frank Carter & the Rattlesnakes on their headlining slot.
Cassyette co-wrote and performed backing vocals for "Doomsday Blue", the Irish entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, performed by Bambie Thug.
