Where It All Started
A quick look at his Wikipedia page shows that Conan Gray was born on December 5 in 1998, but far more interesting than his birth date are his roots. Conan was born in California to an Irish and Japanese mother, but his family moved to Japan for some years when he was a young kid. It wasn’t the first or last time he moved, because after his parents divorced, when he was three years old, he moved over ten times.
As a 15-year-old teenager, Conan started his own YouTube channel where he could share his stories and music. It was his first important step in becoming an artist and is still a very important source for inspiration because it learned him to open up to a big audience and taught him how he can articulate his emotions.
