Her Start with Singing
Billie Eilish joined the LA Children’s Chorus when she was only eight years old. She spoke about it in an interview with Vogue saying, “That’s where I’ve gotten all my singing technique, even though it’s mostly choral stuff. It’s helped me learn the proper way to sing and not ruin my voice completely.

But I’ve just always sung all the time. I sang so much that my family had to shush me. Then I started writing when I was about 11.” I had a few friends who would sing around the house, and I was the one who was always shushing them. It seems to have paid off for Billie, though, because she is now very well known around the world.
