Bonzai

Bonzai is the electrifying musical persona of Irish singer-songwriter Cassia O’Reilly, who blends glitchy electronic beats, alt-pop hooks, and sharp-witted lyricism into a sound that feels both futuristic and deeply human. Bursting onto the scene in the mid-2010s, she quickly gained attention for her genre-blurring tracks like "Cyberdog" and "Hit the Sky," which pair hypnotic production with her signature half-rapped, half-sung delivery. Her music often explores themes of self-discovery, resilience, and the chaos of modern life, anchored by a DIY ethos and playful experimentation. Recent releases like "Nightmare Always Ends the Dawn" and "Seeds to Roots" showcase her evolving sound—moody, textured, and unafraid to dive into raw emotion while keeping dancefloors in mind. With collaborations spanning Kaytranada and Rejjie Snow, Bonzai remains a shapeshifting force in underground pop.
