In 2005, at age 16, she started gigging around New York City, using a fake ID to gain entry to the local nightclubs. In 1999, she debuted as an actress in her father's film Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo. After college, she briefly lived in Copenhagen and Los Angeles, before moving back to New York where she currently resides in Bushwick, Brooklyn.

Upon graduating from Elisabeth Irwin High School/Little Red School House, she moved to Philadelphia to enroll at University of the Arts, studying painting and film. King spent her teenage years in New York City, but she has also lived in Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and Copenhagen, Denmark. During her teenage years, she attended Buck's Rock camp in Connecticut, where she starred successfully in a number of musicals. Her interest in the country and bluegrass of Hank Williams and Earl Scruggs inspired her to learn the banjo. Īt the age of 13, King started playing guitar, immersing herself in the music of Otis Redding, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Etta James, Aretha Franklin, Al Green, Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, AC/DC (she has the phrase "dirty deeds" tattooed on her biceps), and Earl Scruggs.
