Lacey Sturm

Lacey Nicole Mosley (born on September 4, 1981 in Arlington, Texas, United States) is a female musician, best known as the lead vocalist of Flyleaf.

Lacey Mosley was born in Arlington, Texas, to a single mother of six. The family was poor, and when ends didn't meet in one place, they'd move to another. Between moving and fights with her mother, what Lacey describes as "a warzone going home", she began dabbling in drugs. "The first time I ever did drugs, I was ten years old. I kind of kept it a secret from people at school, and I always had a thought that it was wrong, you know..I kinda knew it was wrong. But, then, when I was thirteen, I found these other people that did drugs and I got even worse into it. It was like whatever I could do, I would do it, you know? I was trying to figure out who I was, and anything to separate me from my family, or to separate me from my situation at home, was awesome, was good to me.". Lacey received a bass guitar at fourteen, where she began playing Green Day and Nirvana songs. At sixteen, the fighting between Mosley and her mother became so intense that she was forced to leave her Arlington home. She then moved to Gulfport, Mississippi, to live with her grandparents. While going to school at Gulfport High School, she joined a band that was searching for a bass player. She continued on to sing for the band, writing lyrics and playing guitar. Lacey decided to quit the band, due to the members not having an interest in what she had to say as well as all the negativity coming from the music.
