Description

Billie Eilish, in full Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O’Connell, (born December 18, 2001, Los Angeles, California, U.S.), American singer-songwriter who first gained recognition in 2015 for the song “Ocean Eyes” and became, in 2020, the youngest person ever to win a Grammy for album of the year. Eilish’s parents were inspired by Hanson, a ’90s pop band formed by a group of homeschooled brothers from Tulsa, Oklahoma, to teach their children at home and encourage them to explore passions outside of the traditional education system. As a child, Eilish experimented with horseback riding, dance, and singing as a member of the Los Angeles Children’s Chorus. In 2015 Eilish’s elder brother, Finneas Baird O’Connell, who performs under the moniker FINNEAS, enlisted her to sing “Ocean Eyes,” a song he had written and produced for his band at the time and later put online. The song quickly gained success, and Eilish signed with the boutique label Darkroom in the summer of 2016.
