Cynthia Nabozny (born May 13, 1993 in the United States), The Michigan-born artist as one of the most refreshing songwriters and performers to emerge in late 2010s pop. Nabozny – who has since adopted the artist name CYN – grew up in Michigan, outside Detroit . Growing up, CYN pored over the American Songbook. CYN spent a lot of time with her grandmother listening to Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Doris Day, and Carole King. The voices she grew up on were far subtler than some of the belting pop vocals of today.
