Quick Facts

News •

Billie Eilish (born December 18, 2001, Los Angeles, California, U.S.) first gained recognition in 2015 for the song “Ocean Eyes” and became, in 2020, the youngest person ever to win a Grammy for album of the year, for When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? Her other works include Happier than Ever (2021) and the award-winning song “What Was I Made For?,” which was recorded for the Barbie (2023) soundtrack.

Early life

Eilish’s parents were inspired by Hanson, a ’90s pop band formed by a group of homeschooled brothers from Tulsa, Oklahoma, to teach their children at home and encourage them to explore passions outside of the traditional education system. As a child, Eilish experimented with horseback riding, dance, and singing as a member of the Los Angeles Children’s Chorus. In 2015 Eilish’s elder brother, Finneas Baird O’Connell, who performs under the moniker FINNEAS, enlisted her to sing “Ocean Eyes,” a song he had written and produced for his band at the time and later put online. The song quickly gained success, and Eilish signed with the boutique label Darkroom in the summer of 2016.

When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? and Happier than Ever

Darkroom released Eilish’s Don’t Smile at Me in August 2017, an eight-song EP written by Eilish and FINNEAS. The EP was reissued with a bonus track in December 2017; two more bonus tracks were added in later reissues. Following its release, Don’t Smile at Me peaked at 14 on the Billboard 200 chart.

Eilish’s music draws inspiration from hip-hop artists such as Childish Gambino and Tyler, the Creator. Her debut album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?, was released on March 29, 2019, and reached number one on the Billboard 200 chart. The song “Bad Guy” from the album was Eilish’s first number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and it won Grammys in 2020 for song of the year and record of the year; When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? was named album of the year. In 2019 Eilish also released the single “Everything I Wanted,”, and it later was awarded the Grammy for record of the year. The documentary Billie Eilish: The World’s a Little Blurry appeared in 2021. Later that year Eilish released her second studio album, Happier than Ever, which was noted for its confessional songs, a number of which deal with the downside of her celebrity.

Film work and Academy Awards

Also in 2021 Eilish wrote (with FINNEAS) and performed “No Time to Die” for the James Bond film of the same name; it received the Oscar for best original song. In 2022 she collaborated with FINNEAS and composer Ludwig Göransson on the soundtrack for the Disney/Pixar animated film Turning Red, for which Eilish and her brother wrote three original songs. (In the film the songs were performed by a fictional boy band called 4*TOWN.) The following year she collaborated with rapper and singer-songwriter Labrinth on the haunting ballad “Never Felt So Alone.” She also contributed the ethereal “What Was I Made For?” to the soundtrack of the blockbuster movie Barbie. Cowritten with FINNEAS and featuring a wistful video showing Eilish dressed as her younger self and playing with doll sets, the ballad won the Grammy for song of the year as well as an Oscar and a Golden Globe for best original song.

Hit Me Hard and Soft

In 2024 Eilish released her third studio album, Hit Me Hard and Soft. Critics praised its female-centric songs, such as the provocative lesbian anthem “Lunch.” Later in the year Eilish was scheduled to begin a world concert tour.
