Life and career
Hobert is the sister of fellow musician Malcolm Todd.[1] Her father was a writer and producer for Scrubs and The Middle.[2] She studied at New York University and graduated in 2021 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts. Afterwards, she worked as a writer's production assistant at Warner Bros.[3] As part of her writing career, Hobert was a staff writer on every episode of the Nickelodeon sitcom The Really Loud House (2022–2024).[4]
Hobert then decided to venture into songwriting, working with close friend Gracie Abrams.[5] The pair had met at their fifth-grade graduation.[2] Together, they co-wrote numerous songs for Abrams' 2024 studio album The Secret of Us. Hobert also directed various music videos for songs on the album.[5] Notably, Hobert co-wrote the international hit song "That's So True", as well as providing backing vocals for the song;[6] the track spent eight weeks at the top of the UK singles chart.[7] The pair also co-wrote a sexually explicit version of the song on the roof of Electric Lady Studios.[6] Hobert accompanied Abrams for various live performances on the song.[6]
Through Abrams, Hobert signed a publishing deal with Universal Music Group, and co-wrote numerous tracks for other artists[2] including "Start All Over" for English singer and songwriter Alessi Rose, which appeared on her second EP For Your Validation.[8] Through Universal, Hobert met Ricky Gourmet, who coproduced Finneas O'Connell's debut album.[2] On May 9, 2025, Hobert released her debut single, "Sue Me",[9] a track about wanting to feel wanted after a breakup.[2] The song was the fifth song she had written alone.[10] She followed it up with "Bowling Alley" in June 2025, as well as playing her first headlining concert.[11]
