- Birth nameBridie Monds-Watson
- [on her song Sea Creatures] Back then I only knew four or five chords on the guitar, so that's why it's so simplistic. I had a friend who was openly gay and being bullied and me and her were probably the only gay people in our year. There are so many different aspects of being 14 in that song like, you have that phase of 'Oh my God I want to get out of this town, I hate all of these people' and then the chorus is about people's ignorance and intolerance.
- When I was really young, like five, I had severe dyslexia and they said I was never going to be able to write. The specialists said I should go to special schools but my parents wanted me to have the same chances as my two brothers. My little brother is also dyslexic and is on the autistic spectrum...
- [describing herself] An Irish Leprechaun.
- I had a hernia when I was two because I screamed so much.
- [on becoming "obsessed" with song-writing at age 13] Until that point I had never been super-dedicated about anything and I never thought I was super-talented at anything either but then I started doing music and I got really into it.
