Broussard self-released her first album Louisiana Soul in 2004.[7][8] Her next album, Lil-yah, came in 2005.[9][10] When she was seventeen, Broussard moved to New York City and began performing in clubs. She inked a publishing deal and lived in Los Angeles for a few years before returning to New York.

A successful Kickstarter campaign led to the release of Broussard's album Masquerade in 2010.[6] In 2011, she was the runner-up in Rolling Stone magazine's "Choose the Cover" contest and appeared live on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. In 2012, Broussard was a contestant on the third season of The Voice, winning a spot on Team Blake after auditioning with her rendition of Dancing in the Dark by Bruce Springsteen.[11]

In 2013, Broussard formed the indie rock band Secret Someones with Bess Rogers, Hannah Winkler, and Zach Jones.[12] They released their debut self-titled album in 2015 through the label Cherrytree Records.[13] In early 2016, the band announced an indefinite hiatus.[14] Later in the year, she formed Jupiter Winter with Royce Whittaker.[1]

Broussard began touring with The Midnight as a guitarist and vocalist during the Fall 2019 Tour, and has performed live with the band ever since. In addition to collaborating on the song Monsters, she co-wrote the songs Heroes and Heart Worth Breaking on the The Midnight's 2022 release, Heroes.

Royce Whittaker is a Canadian producer and multi-instrumentalist who hails from Vancouver.[15] His father was a musician and as such Whittaker was exposed to making music from a young age. At the age of seventeen, Whittaker began to write music and play guitar in a band, touring across Canada. From 2012-2014, he was a member of the Canadian metal band Incura.[16][17][18]

Beginning in 2015, Whittaker worked as a guitar and sound tech for the band Marianas Trench, and toured extensively across the US and Canada with the band.[15] In 2017, he joined the sound engineering company Electronic Creatives and began working as a playback engineer, touring with artists such as Ariana Grande and Mariah Carey.

In 2016, Whittaker partnered with Lelia Broussard to form Jupiter Winter. He is the main producer and instrumentalist in the group.

In 2019 Whittaker reunited with Marianas Trench, playing guitar, keys, and singing background vocals for the band as they toured the US, Canada, and Europe. He continues to work as a playback engineer for some of the world's top artists.
