One of Lily’s first appearances was on an episode of “The Comic Strip Presents…” which her father had co-written. Later on she would attend numerous schools. This was mainly because she had become delinquent, getting expelled numerous times for smoking and drinking. She was then discovered by Rachel Santesso who started giving her singing lessons. After singing a song for a school production of “Dumbo”, she decided to pursue music career fully. She learned the piano, took singing lessons, and started to learn various instruments. At the age of 15, she decided to drop out of school to focus on her music career.

Allen met her first manager in Ibiza, where she worked at a record store. During this time, she was rejected by numerous record labels but eventually used her father’s connections to get signed to London Records in 2002. However, when the executive who signed her left the label, they lost interest. She took some time to study horticulture but then returned to music, writing songs while looking for the next opportunity. In 2005, she was signed to Regal Recordings and they gave her money to produce her first album despite being busy with other popular bands such as Coldplay. This led to Lily posting on Myspace and her demos started to earn a significant amount of popularity. Eventually, her popularity led to her being noticed by her label and many publications.

Allen’s debut album entitled “Alright, Still” was released in 2006 and it contained a lot of her songs which were released on MySpace.
