BIOGRAPHY:
dep
Most of Rina's life was spent at the store her parents owned. Whether she was helping out her family or just relaxing behind the counter, she and her brother could often be seen together. The store was open 24 hours a day, therefore they all took turns to man the store during night shifts. Rina's brother, Matty was doing the midnight shift when the store was held up by a gunman. While Matty didn’t try and be a hero, the gunman thought he was attempting to push the security alarm and alert police. Matty was shot and killed at only the age of 18.
After the sudden death of her brother, Rina's whole life went downhill. The Chiron's were left traumatized by losing a son and the memory of the traumatic event meant that they closed the store that had once been like a second home. The police weren't able to find the shooter, so the case inevitably went cold. Not able to cope with the loss, Rina's mother turned to heavy alcohol abuse to which, her father could not stand by and watch. Rina started rebelling too, going against the pious lifestyle her father always peddled. She got covered in tattoos, pierced her nose, dabbled with illicit substances while underage. After years of watching his wife deteriorate and his child rebel, David eventually left town. It's been eleven years and he has never returned.
To cope, Rina found that she needed to escape the shittiness of her new living situation. She started hanging out with older kids, getting into all kinds of trouble. Eventually, she joined a band as their bassist and it was the only thing she lived for. The sense of community they felt was what they was missing at home and in time, they found who they really were. They came out as non-binary and queer. Her mother didn't care, only thinking of the bottle but Rina had never felt more themselves. At the age of 17, they dropped out of school to start working at a local hairdresser where they learned the ropes. Eventually, she started getting a name for herself with the younger crowd who weren't interested in the usual styles of hair and makeup.
After Radical Silence broke up after their front man got in a car accident, Rina felt like she had nothing to live for. For years, it was just skating by, trying to pay rent and take it day by day. The pull of music was never far away, often busking on the street when times got tough. After meeting Vanessa Gable from Submergence around town, she got some studio time and recorded her first EP, couldn't love you anymore. The lead song, lacy - written about her then best friend / girlfriend started making the rounds on TikTok, gaining virality.
A few trips to LA and back, meeting with producers and a few record labels through Vanessa's connections, Rina decided that it was time to give this a good go. Suddenly, the small town life wasn't enough for them. So they moved out to the angel city, leaving Aurora Bay behind. Fame was quick to come and life was suddenly very busy. With a new label and recording her first studio album, UNEASY, Rina found herself moving further and further away from the people she loved back home. Swept up in the lights and luster of it all, Rina barely noticed that she were drowning.
The first six months flew by, with the recording of the album and the rebranding of her image, it felt as though she barely had to time to come up for air. Long distance with Phoebe wasn't working out and it felt selfish to bring her along, just watching from the sidelines. They broke up and Rina was entirely focused on work. Soon, she gearing up to be the opening act for a well-known artist and Rina began to crack under the pressure. The fear of letting everyone down, of making a fool of themselves. Of wanting something they weren't sure they deserved.
It started with just a bump or two, just to build some courage before television performances or being on stage. Then the habit became too engrained. A ritual that needed to be done. Rina didn't notice it was a problem until they were in a marble bathroom at a random party, whens someone had a camera that they didn't see. The video made the rounds on socials, and while Rina didn't exactly come across as someone with a pristine reputations, it was too early in their career for such a scandal. Her label told her to cool off, maybe work on some new music until things cooled off. There was only one place that Rina ever felt like coming back to.
