KAYDEN is a genre-blending singer, songwriter, and producer from Southern Coastal California whose music lives at the intersection of pop clarity, R&B smoothness, and alt honesty. With over 100 self-written and self-produced tracks since his debut in 2017, KAYDEN has carved out a space for raw storytelling—balancing themes like love, heartbreak, anxiety, growing up, and the complexity of family with infectious melodies that linger long after the first listen.
Citing Bazzi, Jon Bellion, and Lauv as key influences, KAYDEN’s sound is familiar yet fresh—anchored in vulnerability, but delivered with the kind of confidence only experience brings. He first broke through in 2019, selling out his headliner at NYC’s Mercury Lounge, and quickly became a viral force with the TikTok smash Mr. Nice Guy (20M+ views in 2020) and the emotionally-charged Runaway, which soundtracked millions of user videos in 2022.
As a completely independent artist who has never been signed to a label, KAYDEN has built his career from the ground up—writing, producing, and releasing every song on his own terms. Now, after a year-long hiatus, KAYDEN returns with his most compelling work yet: a reintroduction rooted in the sound fans fell in love with, but elevated by new stories, sharper edges, and a deeper emotional core.
