Primers anys
Els seus pares es van separar quan ella tenia dotze anys. Als tretze va començar a compondre cançons. Cantava des de molt petita i va aprendre a tocar diversos instruments musicals clàssics com el piano, el violoncel i el clarinet. Va aprendre per sí sola a tocar la guitarra i la bateria així com altres instruments de percussió. Imogen no es portava bé amb el seu professor de música, així que es va espavilar per si sí sola per estudiar música i compondre amb ordinadors Atari. Va seguir els seus estudis a la BRIT School for Performing Arts & Technology de Croydon, al sud de Londres.
