Kiiara Says 'Music Was Always What I Wanted to Do': FM First Interview

Like most adults her age, Kiiara took some time before falling into the career she truly wanted.

Watch above as the latest FM First artist explains her grind. While pursuing singing and songwriter, the 21-year-old tried studying engineering, working in accounting finance, all before eventually moving to Los Angeles once her single "Gold" began smashing around the world—and so far it's a Top 5 hit in Australia, while going Top 40 in Ireland, New Zealand and Sweden, and is currently climbing up the Billboard Hot 100. 

But even while she was navigating the workforce, the Illinois singer-songwriter emphasizes, "Music was always what I wanted to do."
