Paris admitted that although being a musician runs in her family, she was hesitant to enter the field. She explained, “I was pretty scared to start doing music because I’ve kind of been playing guitar since I was 13 or 14 and I just suppressed it as a hobby.”
“In my like early 20s, I was like, ‘I can’t do this anymore. It’s what makes me happy, and I just have to do that. Especially because this was before I figured out all the other things that made me happy,” added the Zombies In Love hitmaker.
