Olivia Morreale grew up in an Italian-American family in Washington, DC, and later New York City, and has always taken a no-holds-barred approach to finding her individuality and pursuing her passions. After studying all types of music from the age of 9, Olivia found her true musical home as a teenager sitting in at late-night R&B and jazz jam sessions in Manhattan. She studied jazz, songwriting, and English at USC. In her writing, she draws from poetry and literature along with music from the past and present.
Olivia has toured nationally as a background vocalist and keyboard player and has played at various venues in Los Angeles as a solo artist as well as the lead vocalist of the all-female rock group MOTHER. She has also sung with big bands and has recorded lead and background vocals for several acts around the Los Angeles area.
