Sarah Rebecca was born and raised in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. From the age of five, she had a unique sense of style and warned her parents that music would be her life. Until she was old enough to realize her dream, Sarah made her early musical education in the gospel choir at church with her grandmother, Mammaw, along with her brothers, sister and cousins. Her musical references at the time were Tori Amos, PJ Harvey, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan. Her first group at the age of thirteen turned to shoegaze and grunge, heavily influenced by Nirvana and Joy Division.
