Straus Jr. and Agnes \"Aggie\" Mullaney. Her parents divorced when she was young. On her father's side, her great-great-grandparents include Isidor Straus, a U.S. Congressman and co-owner of Macy's, and Ida Straus; the couple died in the sinking of the British passenger liner Titanic. However, she's stated she is not an heiress and did not inherit any fortune.\n\nStraus spent much of her childhood following her father to work at his recording studio, Mission Sound. There, she learned several instruments, including bass, guitar, piano, and drums, as well as music-production techniques and insight into the music industry. In 2012, she received a scholarship to attend Avenues: The World School, a private school in Manhattan, after submitting a CD of songs she had written.\n\nAfter high school, Straus moved to Los Angeles to study at the USC Thornton School of Music.
