Weyes Blood is one of the most popular and richest Singer who was born on June 11, 1988 in Santa Monica, California, United States. Natalie Laura Mering was born June 11, 1988 , in Santa Monica, California, to a very religious, born-again Pentecostal Christian family. In a statement about her childhood, Mering said: “I was raised in a truly faith-based, Bible Belt household. Thus, I developed my own cynicism since there are many things in the Bible that make me feel angry… Then I was extremely obsessed in The Kids in the Hall as a child. And they featured Scott Thompson, who’s like the only member who is gay. I remember getting this sensation of “Oh, Scott Thompson isn’t going to heaven? Why is that?” That was my first big tipoff that something wasn’t quite right with dogmatic Christianity. And then I was just trying to undo it since the age of 12.”

Mering has claimed that the church music that was a part of her life, and which played heavily in her childhood and has had a significant influence on her writing. “Most of the great classical music and early music of our time is written for God in a sacred space,” she stated. “So sacred music and sacred space music — that was my favorite thing about music. Not so much content- wise. Not so much the theory and concept of God, but just the idea that we’ve built this gigantic, stone cathedral palace for people to sing in… When I record, I think about sacred space and I think about what would be the sound of your soul if there is music coming out of it. It would probably be an echoey, strange chamber.” When she spoke to Nardwuar in the year 2019, she said that she’s also been inspired through The Velvet Underground, Wolf Eyes and the experimental artist Inca Ore. Mering states in the same interview that in the beginning of her career, when she was making music that was experimental she was compared by people to the soundtracks of horror films. She began to study as well and get influenced by soundtracks to films like Jaws or The Wizard of Oz.

The record received high placements on year-end and decade-end lists from publications such as Pitchfork, Uproxx, Paste, Uncut, Dazed, The Guardian, and NPR. On the 16th of July 2019, she did her TV debut at Late Night with Seth Meyers, where she performed her single ‘’Everyday’’ from Titanic Rising. Live performance highlights include sold-out tours in the US and Europe, as well as opening for Kacey Musgraves in the fall and singing with Lana Del Rey at the Hollywood Bowl.

On February 12, 2019, a new album titled Titanic Rising was announced and available to pre-order on her website, along with dates of her upcoming tour. The album was released by Sub Pop on April 5, 2019 to critical acclaim. Mering describes Titanic Rising as “The Kinks meet WWII or Bob Seger meets Enya.” Other influences include Kate Bush and Karen Carpenter (or at least Sonic Youth’s hip, revisionist idea of Karen Carpenter). Titanic Rising is described as a record about romantic disappointment, damaged reality, and finding hope.

In 2011, she released the record”The Outside Room as Weyes Blood and The Dark Juices on Not Not Fun Records. Uncut magazine described the album as “devotional and ethereal, with a slant” and Beatbots said it was “an incredible and expansive album”. Mering made her debut album in October 2014, titled The Innocents, which was released during Mexican Summer. The record took place in the countryside of Pennsylvania in Mering’s home as well as Gary’s Electric Studio in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. The album also featured contributions from Jacob Brunner (drums) and James Strong (bass). Mering said the album’s theme was the album as “about my first real relationship that went really awry.”
