Plank was born in Australia [2] and attended the Notting Hill Academy of Music. [3] Her parents met in Australia in the early 1990s rave scene, and her uncle was a DJ. She began recording music during the lockdown; [4] her first works were lo-fi demos. [5] She previously worked at Marks and Spencer. [5]
On 14 February 2021, Plank released "Dont U Know" with Frankie Allan and Strictly Banks, [6] and on 13 August 2021, she featured on "Reflecting" from Chowerman's EP ANTITHESIS, which also featured Luciferian and Kami-O. [7] On 20 May 2022, Plank self-released "Hate Me". [8] The song details Plank's attempts to put off a potential love interest due to her own self-hatred. [9]
The song brought Plank to the attention of Black Butter Records, who signed her, [10] and re-released it on 19 August 2022, [11] the same day as its camcorder-style music video, which was shot at Sexy Lady Massive, a women-only rave in London. [12]
On 9 November 2022, she released "Lost Boys", [11] which discusses men's mental health. [5] On 19 January 2023, she released "L.S.D. (Love So Damaged)", [11] which discusses the struggles of a toxic relationship. [5]
On 21 April 2023, Plank, Rudimental and Vibe Chemistry released "Dancing Is Healing", [13] a song about the healing properties of dancing, [14] which reached No. 5 on the UK Singles Chart [15] and was certified Silver by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). [16]
On 25 April 2023, she released "White Noise", [11] which she had previously performed live. [17]
On 18 May 2023, [18] she, Turno, and Skepsis released "Rave Out". The track was recorded as the first of 22 songs created during a January 2023 writing camp, discusses men's mental health, [19] and reached No. 37 on the UK Singles Chart. [15]
"Dancing Is Healing" and "Rave Out" later appeared on Plank's mixtape InHer World. [20]
Plank and Skepsis collaborated again in February 2024 on "Green & Gold", a collaboration with Rudimental and Riko Dan [21] of Roll Deep, [22] which reached No. 29 on the UK Singles Chart. [23]
Plank's musical inspirations include Fleetwood Mac, Sam Fender, Keith Flint, Orbital, and Bicep. [5] She, along with Piri, Venbee, Issey Cross, and Willow Kayne, is a member of Loud LDN, a collective of female and non-binary musicians based in London and its suburbs. [24]
