Early life and education
Caroline Cecil was born in Toronto, Ontario. She and her family later moved to Nanaimo on Vancouver Island. She began ice skating at age two and was enrolled in professional figure skating lessons by age seven. She became a competitive figure skater at age eight and spent much of her youth traveling throughout Canada and the United States, competing in figure skating competitions. Her success at these events led to aspirations of joining the Canadian Olympic team. When she was 18, however, Cecil suffered a severe broken ankle while practicing triple toe loops. The injury required surgery that resulted in the insertion of a metal plate and six pins in her ankle. Although she was able to recover, she opted to forgo figure skating to pursue a career in music. Cecil is a graduate of Woodlands Secondary School in Nanaimo.

Career
In 2012, Cecil attended the Sasquatch! Music Festival where she watched a performance by Active Child that spurred her to create her own music. Using Ableton Live and a Traktor controller, she learned how to produce tracks over the next two years. She released her first single as Whipped Cream in 2014.
