She says in her Columbia Records biography that ever since she was a little girl she wanted to be a performer and that she actually began to write songs in fifth grade. Reportedly, while showing off her talents to her third grade teacher, her teacher told her that she’d end up “one day on Jay Leno’s show.” Leno recounted that story when Nalick actually did perform on his show earlier this year, quipping “which shows you how long I’ve been running this show”.
Anna Nalick grew up in Glendora, California, just east of Pasadena. As a teenager, she says she grew up in a household where her parents played recordings by a wide variety of artists. Her mother turned her on to bands such as The Rolling Stones, Cream and Led Zeppelin, while her father turned her to Elvis Presley and The Everly Brothers. Anna began her songwriting career in the fifth grade. She officially cites her influences as Fiona Apple, Tori Amos, Blind Melon, John Mayer, and Stevie Ray Vaughan, among others. She says of Vaughan that he is “the guy that I’m going to marry when I get to heaven.” In high school, in addition to writing her own songs, she performed with a Rush cover band.
