Biography

Alanna Sterling is a gender-fluid, genre-fluid vocal shapeshifter and multi-instrumental sorcerer. As an advocate for mental illness, their ultimate passion is to create musical movements out of moments of struggle, in hopes to work through life's adversities and inspire others to overcome their own battles. Upon learning piano at the age of 2, Alanna made it their mission to pursue the arts in all of its forms - music, visual arts, dance, drama, literary works. In their teen years, Sterling took it upon themselves to learn over 40 different instruments and start writing poetry, as a way to escape from bullying, trauma, social anxiety and depression. Music ultimately became their sword and savior and gave them the confidence they needed to carry on. Songwriting came naturally, and since the age of 12, Alanna has composed hundreds of songs, most of which will remain hidden in a notebook, never to be recorded. Currently, Alanna has made their mark as a partnered streamer on Twitch, under the alias "MermaidUnicorn", a.k.a. Merms. Merms has gathered a huge loving community with their weekly broadcasts, and has been able to truly launch their career into a global platform.
