Career


De Souza grew up in the conservative small town of Spruce Pine, North Carolina, where she and her artist mother faced difficulty fitting in.[4] De Souza's father is a Brazilian guitarist who was absent during much of her childhood.[4] Her family moved to Asheville during her teen years.[4]

With encouragement from her mother, De Souza started making music at age 9,[5] and began self-producing her own recordings in 2016. Her first release was an EP titled Boys that was recorded in a friend's garage, followed by another EP titled Don't Cry Just Do in 2017.[1] She self-released her first full-length album, I Love My Mom, in June 2018. Saddle Creek Records discovered the album and gave it a proper release in 2021.[1] The album gained notice from journalists for De Souza's lyrics on taboo topics.[6]

De Souza co-produced her second album, Any Shape You Take, with Brad Cook, who has also produced for Bon Iver and Waxahatchee.[7] The album was released in August 2021,[1] and was noted for De Souza's emotional singing and her mastery of several different musical styles.[8] De Souza toured with a full band featuring Dexter Webb (guitar), Zack Kardon (bass), and Avery Sullivan (drums). She also formed a neo soul side project called Icky Bricketts with Ethan Baechtold.[5]
