Ella Wren Running-rabbit grew up in a musical household. Coming from a Native American background, her mother played the piano and her father played the bass, and she had a little wind-up radio through which she would listen to any local artists she could. She started playing piano herself, with her mom beginning to teach her and her neighbor teaching her how to build a chord from three separate notes. From there, she practiced every day and started teaching herself more concepts. She started writing her own songs around the age of nine. In 11th grade, she started playing the guitar as well. Running-rabbit found herself inspired by many artists from her area, including Leftover Salmon and many different bluegrass groups, but was also drawn to artists such as Janis Joplin, Stevie Nicks, and Jimi Hendrix. Now, she has expanded her musical repertoire to include funk and blues artists and even artists such as Metallica. However, those initial roots gave her the track on which to run her musical train.
