Singer, songwriter, DJ, and multifaceted artist Kaleena Zanders is set to unveil her highly anticipated debut seven-track album Anything Goes via Helix Records on May 15. Known for her rich, commanding vocals and fearless creativity, Kaleena Zanders fully steps into her own across the project, seamlessly blending electronic grooves, forward-thinking house, stutter-pop, and uplifting anthems while embracing her role as a visionary artist.
“Typically the way I experience music is fluid and without boundaries,” shares Kaleena Zanders. “I’ve always been drawn to blending genres, and this album became a space where I could explore and let electronic sounds I love exist freely. I also wanted to show a range of emotions that I feel like I typically don’t share with my audience.”
She continues, “Anything Goes is a reaction to the world around us. It feels like the people shaping it are constantly rewriting the rules, shifting systems, redefining what’s possible, whether we’re ready or not. There’s a kind of chaos to it… like everything is up for grabs. So this album is my answer: create without fear. Move without limits. If you have something to give, give it.”
“Because in a world that feels like a free-for-all, maybe the most powerful thing we can do is not hold back. The next steps for my project are to tour the album and keep developing the feeling that I tapped into with the title track ‘Anything Goes’ in a harder and more specific way. I’m excited to share it with my audience.”
The album opens with its title track and lead single, “ANYTHING GOES,” a radiant entry point built around a feel-good breakbeat pulse that blends pop sensibility with UK garage-inspired basslines for a fluid, genre-blurring introduction. The project then transitions into “The Light” alongside Shift K3Y, where rolling bass grooves balance euphoria with emotional tension.
“Can You Imagine,” featuring GRAMMY-winning artist Bipolar Sunshine, pushes into sleek, forward-thinking house territory, pairing Kaleena Zanders’ commanding vocals with his indie-leaning tone to create one of the album’s most dynamic crossover moments. On “Call Out My Name,” she leans into vulnerability, delivering yearning lyricism over polished stutter-house rhythms with a subtle pop edge.
“Who We Are” featuring Hayley May follows with a reflective yet anthemic energy, fusing melodic electronic textures with understated grooves while exploring themes of identity and connection. “Stronger Than Machines” emerges as a defining centerpiece, layering uplifting melodies and choral elements into a triumphant anthem centered around resilience and unity.
Closing the album is “Thinking of Yesterday” featuring No Bills, a soft and nostalgic comedown that leaves a lasting emotional impression, wrapping the project in a warm glow while allowing space for reflection long after the music fades.
Beyond the music itself, Kaleena Zanders continues to build major momentum across social media, where her creativity and personality have made her a culturally resonant voice. A series of viral moments helped establish that presence, beginning with her cover of the trending track “Bazooka,” which quickly gained traction online. She later expanded on that momentum with her remix of Miami XO’s “Bazooka,” posting a now-viral clip captioned “RIP Granny” that showcased her signature harmonies layered over a nostalgic electro-freestyle beat.
The post amassed more than 1.7 million views and 280,000 likes, striking a balance between humor, personality, and vocal power while remaining unmistakably authentic to her artistic identity. The moment also helped spark the broader “World War III soundtrack” trend, which has generated more than 637,000 views across platforms, further cementing her status as both a musical and cultural force.
That online momentum mirrors her growing real-world impact. Fresh off major performances including a standout appearance at the Super Bowl Pier 80 celebration alongside Diplo, Sonny Fodera, and Calvin Harris, as well as a recent tour with electronic luminary GRiZ, Kaleena Zanders now enters a defining chapter with the launch of her Anything Goes Tour.
The tour arrives ahead of her debut album release this spring, marking a pivotal moment in her evolution as both an artist and a cultural voice.
