==Early life== Adalita was born in Geelong, Victoria on 25 February 1971.
She told Triple J's Richard Kingsmill in 2000 that she made her first guitar out of cardboard and wool, before she bought her first acoustic guitar. "I learnt a few chord progressions from a "how to" guitar book and then started writing and recording my own compositions, using two tape decks and layering guitar parts and vocal harmonies."<ref name="JJJ">{{cite web|url=http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/music_specials/s1402505.htm|title=J Files: Magic Dirt|publisher=Triple J|last=Kingsmill|first=Richard|date=23 November 2000|accessdate=25 January 2010|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100117193435/http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/music_specials/s1402505.htm|archivedate=17 January 2010|url-status=dead}}</ref>
Adalita told ''Australian Guitar'' magazine (when she became the first female to grace the magazine's cover) in 2005 that she "was 18 or 19 when I bought my first A$90 acoustic (guitar) for whatever strange reason I bought it for, on a whim. Then I got an electric maybe six months later and started on that – what was that – in like 1989, 1990."{{Citation needed|date=March 2013}}

===2009–2012: ''Adalita''=== Initially, Adalita harboured no intention to release her own music as a solo artist, but was enthusiastically encouraged by her Magic Dirt bandmate and mentor, Dean Turner, to undertake the production of her debut album. Production of the solo album commenced in 2009, with Turner responsible for production duties; however, in August 2009, due to a rare form of tissue cancer, Turner passed away.<ref name="Ross" /> The album was then completed in 2010, while Magic Dirt was on hiatus following Turner's death.
