Early life
Amaradio was born in an Italian family and raised in San Juan Capistrano in Orange County, California. Picking up the piano and songwriting at seven years old, Amaradio cites her early influences as Stevie Nicks and Billie Holiday, a taste she acquired from her father's vinyl collection. Upon graduating from Capistrano Valley High School, Amaradio briefly moved to Manhattan where she worked as a photographer by day and worked open mics at night. During this time, she wrote "New York City" about her struggles in New York. Upon returning to the West Coast, she adopted the pseudonym "Delacey."
