Alessia Marcuzzi was born on July 10, 1988, in Toronto, Ontario. She is the daughter of Italian immigrants Baggio and Teresa Marcuzzi. Her father is a dentist and her mother works in media relations.
Just like many other aspiring singers, Alessia Marcuzzi began taking vocal lessons when she was just a youngster. In fact, Alessia took vocal lessons for two years before her parents enrolled her in dance classes. However, Alessia decided that she didn’t like school and instead showed interest in singing and acting.
