Wright was born and raised in Pittsfield, Mass., and now resides in Atlanta.

In a 2024 interview withBerkshire Magazine, the artist reflected on what it was like growing up in Pittsfield. “There were a lot of cultural elements that influenced me as a Black and white woman growing up in the Berkshires and seeing both sides,” she said.

“I went to Lenox Memorial High, but I lived in Pittsfield,” Wright added. “I was able to travel to Europe as part of an art class there, and I’m grateful that I had such a great experience with my schooling.”

She also recalled her love and fondness for Pittsfield. “I love visiting my family in Pittsfield, going to Guido’s, and eating at Haven," Wright shared.

Like Swims, Wright is also a singer and songwriter.

She released her debut EPDRIVEin 2019 and followed it up with a 2023 album calledLoveland. Wright first started posting covers of songs on social media and recalls that she found a love for music early in life.

While speaking toBerkshire Magazine, Wright recounted on how she found music: “I wrote my first song when I was 8 or 9. I’m pretty sure I still have it in a little box with other family memories back home,” she said.

“When Instagram came out, I started doing short clips of covers I sang or verses and hooks that I wrote,” she added on her come-up to music. “I was working for my mom at Essencials Day Spa in Pittsfield as a receptionist at the time. I listened to coffeehouse-type music when I worked there likeAdeleand Norah Jones, which influenced the covers I did.”

Wright credits her mom as a huge gateway into her love for music.

A worship leader, Wright’s mother used to bring her young daughter with her to practices at church where the singer recalled, “A lot of times I would just grab a mic and practice with [my mom],” perher website’s bio page.

She also discovered her passion for singing through school plays and evenAmerican Idol, tellingBerkshire Magazine, “Singing at Reigning Love Church in Pittsfield with my mom and being in school plays was also a catalyst for me to find out that I could sing. I got a lot of positive feedback from that."

“My family and I used to watchAmerican Idolreligiously,” she added. “I remember always listening to the advice they gave the contestants and taking it to heart. Simon Cowell said something like, ‘If you want to make it in this industry, you can’t sound like anybody else.’ That was when I realized I needed to make my own sound.”

She and Swims were first spotted together in 2024

In another video posted that same month, Wright filmed Swims spitting out a piece of what appears to be gum or candy that she swiftly catches herself and starts chewing on. She captioned the stunt, “Just two peas in a pod.”
