Originally from London, England, she has lived in San Diego, Los Angeles and San Francisco.

At the age nine she started playing the guitar after receiving the instrument as a Christmas gift. She learned songs by watching YouTube videos from online guitar teachers Justin Sandercoe and Marty Schwartz. Two years later, at the age of 11 she began to post her own cover versions of songs on her original YouTube channel and she started performing at local open mic nights in San Diego. She originally performed as part of a duo with her younger brother Baxter Simpson, also a self-taught musician.

She performed in the Alameda's Got Talent variety show, playing weekly at the historic Alameda Theater. She also frequently played at the Starry Plough near the University of California, Berkeley campus, a venue famous for launching the career of the Counting Crows.
