Her music passion and career
In an interview with Twenty Minutes Later, Aria revealed she grew up listening to music and developed her passion for songwriting at elementary school.
“Everyone had to pick an instrument, so I picked the cello,” she told the outlet. “I loved learning how to read sheet music. This sounds so cliche but, when music is written down, it’s like reading an entirely different language.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Aria talked about two of her biggest pinch-me moments thanks to her popularity on TikTok. The first was when she got a shout out from producer Mark Ronson on the platform and the other when DJ and presenter Zane Lowe created a TikTok video about her.
