Childhood & Early Life
David Lambert was born on November 29, 1993, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. His father was an American of Irish, English, German, and French descent. His mother is Puerto Rican. His parents married early. David grew up with a sister and a brother.
When he joined kindergarten, he was an introverted child. He would seldom respond to his teachers or talk to his classmates. Observing his nature, his parents decided to homeschool him. In addition, his father’s business assignments took him to different places, and it was very difficult for him to continue changing schools from time to time.
Such was the intensity of his “social awkwardness” that his parents had to take him to a counselor to address his mental issues. Despite being an introvert, he showed great artistic talent since his early days. He played a key role in the stage production of ‘The Wizard of Oz’ when he was just 3 years old. Apart from that, he also showed significant inclination toward learning music and had a great singing voice as a child.
He learned to play the electric guitar, the piano, and the trumpet and was also deeply engrossed in drama and literature. Being homeschooled for most of his childhood came with a lot of perks for David, such as having enough time to fulfil his artistic thirst of doing stage shows.
His father’s job had the family moving to different places from time to time. As a kid, David lived in Texas, Taiwan, and England. The family finally settled in Georgia, where David began taking his artistic career very seriously.
At the age of 16, his father passed away. This was a major blow to David and his family. Being an emotional person, David took it very hard, and in order to cope with this loss, he started indulging in art more intensely.
