Victoria Beverly Walker (born 18 April 2001), known professionally as PinkPantheress, is an English singer-songwriter and record producer. Her songs, which are frequently short in length and include samples of music from the 1990s and 2000s, span a number of genres, including bedroom pop, drum and bass, alt-pop, and 2-step garage.
In 2021, while attending university in London, she posted several songs to TikTok that went viral, including “Break It Off”, and she subsequently signed to Parlophone and Elektra Records. Her singles “Just for Me” and “Pain” from her debut mixtape To Hell with It (2021) peaked in the top 40 of the UK Singles Chart and were certified silver by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). Her 2022 single “Boy’s a Liar” reached number two in the UK, while its remix with American rapper Ice Spice became her first entry on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number three. She won BBC’s Sound of 2022 poll and has been nominated for three NME Awards.
Parents and family
Pinkpantheress’ was born to her father, Stephen Walker and mother, Elza Walker.
PinkPantheress was born on 18 April 2001 in Bath, Somerset, to a Kenyan mother, who works as a carer, and a white English father, who works as a statistics professor. She has one older brother, who works as an audio engineer.
When she was five years old, her family moved from Bath to Kent, where she grew up. Her father moved to the United States to work at a university in Austin, Texas when she was 12 years old, while she and her mother stayed in England.
She took piano lessons as a child, and, at age 12, sang “Stand by Me” by Ben E. King at a school talent show. When she was 14 years old, she became the lead singer in a rock band, which covered songs by My Chemical Romance, Paramore, and Green Day, and performed with them for the first time at a school fête. She began working at around age 13, taking jobs at Marks & Spencer, Claire’s, and the Co-op as a teenager. She studied film at University of the Arts London until 2022, when she dropped out.
Family
She was born in Bath in 2001, where her father Stephen worked in the maths department at the city’s university. One well-connected diplomat described the singer as ‘posh’.
Along with her mother Elza and older brother Christopher, the family moved to Kent in 2010, where home was a £500,000 townhouse in Canterbury.
She attended the selective and high-achieving Barton Court Grammar School, during which time she says she stacked shelves at the Co-op supermarket.
Ms Walker’s showbusiness career began at the age of 12, when she danced in a school production of Bugsy Malone, but music was her passion and she began to write songs in her bedroom and plan her unorthodox approach to her career.
