Opening the year with a stirring release, singer-songwriter Crissi Cochrane returns with Black Wasp, a track that reflects both her artistic maturity and her singular creative vision.
Crissi Cochrane – Black Wasp
Originally from the Acadian forests of Nova Scotia and now based in the Windsor–Detroit area, Crissi Cochrane brings a wealth of experience to her songwriting. Her music has appeared on the television series Nashville, and she has collaborated with Bono’s ONE Campaign, marking significant milestones in a career shaped by consistency and depth.

This extensive journey has resulted in more than 13 million Spotify streams, a testament to her steady connection with listeners.
That depth of experience carries through into her music, particularly on her latest release, Black Wasp. The song explores resilience, scarcity, female rage, and survival in unforgiving conditions, drawing inspiration from the natural world, including stubborn vines and hardy weeds, as well as the recurring cycles of birth, death, and renewal. Together, these elements underscore the importance of holding your ground, even as everything beneath you begins to shift.
Carried by a relentless drum pulse and a hypnotic guitar riff, Black Wasp takes shape through evocative lyricism, brought to life by Crissi Cochrane’s assured vocal delivery. The atmospheric production sharpens the song’s impact, giving an already compelling piece a fully realised and distinctive presence.
“Black Wasp is a carefully crafted track where engaging musicianship comes together with sharp, well-honed songwriting.”
With a firmly established reputation and years of experience behind her, Black Wasp stands as a clear reflection of Crissi Cochrane’s artistic growth, revealing a depth and versatility that extend well beyond expectations and fully justify the recognition she has earned.
