“Musicians would come over all the time, and everyone would bring an instrument and play, and I would dance. It was a very creative, artistic environment. But not, like, in a hippie way - in a jazz way”.


Moss’ mother admitted her to ballet classes at the age of five. She shared how seriously art used to be taken in her family.

“Growing up in a family of musicians, you weren't a dilettante about things. If you had a chosen art form, you took that seriously.”
