Early Life


Smith began writing music when she was twelve years old, practicing with her uncle's aging grand piano in the company of her seven pet rats. She has claimed on many occasions that they "inspire every note I write". At age 17, after an argument wih her parents over the living arrangements of the rats, Smith ran away from home and moved to Dublin where she played the jazz-folk circuit looking for her break.

Music==
Smith's first two albums were released exclusively in Ireland; The rats and The Cheese ball EP were released worldwide but neither gave Smith the break she needs.

==Character


Smith has always been regarded as a flamboyant, colourful character, often making bizarre requests of venue management. The most famous of these being her demand that "The crunchy oatcake of greed" be brought up to dressing room after the show. It has never been determined what or who this is, or indeed if the it ever was brought to her dressing room.
