Overit Home Grown Sessions: Cassandra Kubinski with opener Kelsey Dodd

Billboard-charting and Eddies Award-nominated singer/songwriter Cassandra Kubinski now calls Saratoga Springs home. This show finds her between the release of her sunshiney call to peace, power and pleasure, the single Find What Feels Good, and upcoming cover of Joni Mitchell's Both Sides Now, featuring the incredible FAB4 string quartet. 

She has shared her piano-powered songs of transformation, freedom and connection with audiences worldwide, from living rooms in Sydney, Boulder, and Santa Monica, to arenas like Barclays Center and Mets Stadium. Locally, she’s opened for Ben Folds at New Years Eve at City Center, plays house concerts, and leads musical and artist education workshops from Wildwood School in Schenectady, to the library in Saratoga. 

You may have heard her songs on TV: Lifetime's "Dance Moms", ESPN's, "First Take", ABC's "Splash", Bravo's "Real Housewives" and many more. Or maybe you've heard her voice on commercials for Midas, Snickers, Homegoods and dozens more. 

Cassandra's songwriting inspiration, Billy Joel, calls her "transcendent… reminiscent of the singer/songwriters of the late 70s". She looks forward to bringing a transcendent musical experience to the Caffè stage.
