Not to be confused with fashion model Olivia O'Brien.

 

Olivia Gail O'Brien was born on November 26, 1999, in Thousand Oaks, California.  She has been singing since she was seven years old, and taught herself to play guitar and piano.  She attended Justin-Siena High School in Napa, California.  She also skipped a grade (3rd), and attended monastery and catholic schools in her youth. O'Brien also was bullied as a teenager, some of it stemming due to her socioeconomic class and the fact she was creating music.

 

O'Brien initially gained the attention of Gnash after posting a cover of one of his songs on SoundCloud, after beginning to create music at the age of 13.  Gnash reached out to O'Brien, expressing interest in her material, and asked for her to send him any original songs that she had. O'Brien then sent a voice note of her original song, "I Hate U, Love U", and he invited her to record the song with him.
