Trained as a classical violinist from an early age, Eliza and her older sister Anna (Bat For Lashes, British Sea Power) began busking around the streets of Sydney and playing recitals at the Sydney Opera House from the time Eliza was 9. As a teenager Eliza began playing with various bands as violinist, vocalist, and cellist. Eventually, she bought her first acoustic guitar, began crafting songs, and discovered what was to become her true passion. She was naturally drawn to the blues and spent a year listening to nothing but Billy Holiday's album Lady Sings the Blues.
