Timeline
Jessica Anne Newham (born 5 October 1991), known by her stage name Betty Who, is an Australian-American musician, singer and songwriter.
Trained since the age of four as a cellist, she moved to the United States in 2007 to attend Interlochen Center for the Arts in Michigan.
Newham is also self-taught on piano and guitar, wrote her first songs at age 14, and began performing as a singer-songwriter two years later.
Her stage name comes from the title of a song she composed at age 16 about unrequited love.
After school at Ascham in Sydney and Frensham in the Southern Highlands, NSW, Newham attended Berklee College of Music in Boston.
During her first semester, she met producer Peter Thomas who was also attending Berklee.
Thomas suggested pairing Newham's songwriting with a more dreamy, anthemic production style.
The two began writing new material together and developed Newham's sound over the next two years.
After independently releasing her debut single, "Somebody Loves You" (2012), and her debut extended play, The Movement (2013), she signed with RCA Records and later released her debut studio album, Take Me When You Go (2014).

Co-written by Newham and Thomas, and produced by Thomas, the song garnered immediate praise, spreading quickly online and being featured by other well-known outlets including Socialite Life, Pop on And On, and Popservations.
