Biography

Born in London, DeMaria moved to Paris with her family when she was very young. It was there she spent a great deal of her childhood. Whilst at school, she developed a love of punk rock and was introduced to such bands as NOFX,[3] Rancid, The Clash and Green Day by some of the older children on the school bus. She returned to London as a teenager and started playing guitar and songwriting when she was 13. She initially had hopes of being an astrophysicist but realised her love for rock music was greater than that of physics.

After playing in several high school bands, DeMaria formed TAT (originally named The Camden Whigs) with friend Tim Vanderkuil. After several member changes, she was joined by Nick Kent and Jake Reed, who solidified the band's present lineup. Since TAT's inception, the band has toured extensively in Europe and North America alongside other solo acts and as a fan favorite on The Vans Warped Tour.
