A melodic array of soul and sophisti-pop enjoyment shows throughout “Fly Like a Bird,” a new single from Dubai-based artist Cass DiFonte. Crafted alongside Los Angeles-based producer and multi-instrumentalist Jason Aguja, “Fly Like a Bird” enamors in its expressive vocal beauty and balancing of breezy, lush instrumentation with hook-ready immediacy.
“‘Fly Like a Bird’ is about embracing freedom and trusting yourself to follow your dreams, no matter how big or small,” DiFonte says. “It’s a reminder to shed old fears and let go of self-doubt. I want this song to inspire people to take that leap toward self-discovery and personal growth.”
Piano flourishes and steady guitars move quickly into a soulful entrancement, where lounge-ready rhythms complement the scene-setting “walking down the street on a sunny day,” scene-setting. “There’s lightness in my footsteps,” DiFonte continues, artfully capturing that aforementioned sense of freedom and personal entrustment. The title-touting soaring follows — “let my voice be heard, a new horizon bursting full of hopes,” — and invigorates in its self-catharsis amidst a serenely gripping blend of tender guitars, illuminated piano, and understated rhythms. “Fly Like a Bird” is a gorgeously introspective soul-pop delight from Cass DiFonte.
