DeAnda was born in San Angelo, Texas to Steven and Barbara DeAnda, a restaurant manager and a RN school nurse.1 She is of Mexican descent234 and has three siblings, including two sisters, Brandi and Jessica and a brother, Sterling.citation needed At age six she began taking piano lessons and was soon singing at functions around town at the recommendation of her piano teacher.5 She also sang the national anthem at local football games.1 .5 In 2002, DeAnda's family decided to move to Corpus Christi, Texas in order to help further her career in music because Corpus Christi had a reputation as a music hub.6 She attended Mary Carroll High School in Corpus Christi.1
In Corpus Christi, DeAnda signed with Ed Ocanas a local program director who together with a local record label Evident Music Group helped finance her. In the spring of 2005, with the help of Ocana, DeAnda became the opening act of a local concert which featured hip-hop artists, Nelly, Baby Bash and Frankie J. as a last minute addition, performing in from twenty thousand people.16 DeAnda's first single, "What Would It Take" was serviced to local radio stations in July 2005 received airplay from ten radio stations across the country. The single was later switched for "Doing Too Much" in December when Ocana secured a mini-tour of California and Texas for DeAnda. The song was a minor hit in the Southwest and was making an impact on rhythmic radio. It was then that DeAnda got the opportunity to audition for Clive Davis who signed her for a seven-album deal with Arista2 on the spot.136
