Peyroux's family was in academia. When Peyroux was six, her father moved the family to Brooklyn so he could pursue a career in acting. She grew up in New York City and southern California; when her parents divorced, she moved with her mother to Paris.[1] In several interviews, Peyroux described her parents as "hippies" and classifies them as "eccentric educators", which certainly helped her to pursue a career in music.[2] According to an interview [3]she gave to Danielle Gasparro, her father would "listen to old records all the time" and her mother had an ukulele she learned how to play while she was still a child.
