Born Ashton Simmonds on April 5, 1995, in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, Caesar grew up in a deeply religious family and was exposed to gospel music from a young age. He began playing guitar and writing songs in his teens and was heavily influenced by artists such as Stevie Wonder, Lauryn Hill, and John Mayer.

He released his debut full-length album "Freudian" in 2017, which was a critical and commercial success. The album features collaborations with artists such as H.E.R., Syd, and Kali Uchis, and earned Caesar two Grammy nominations for Best R&B Album and Best R&B Performance for the single "Get You."
Caesar's music is characterized by his emotive, soulful vocals, confessional lyrics, and unique production style that blends live instrumentation with electronic elements. He has been praised for his ability to capture complex emotions in his music and for his willingness to explore themes such as spirituality, love, and mental health.
