Born Donald Moore Jr. on October 19, 1988 in Cincinnati, Ohio, Don Moore fell in love with music at an early age and began playing the piano and organ at 5 years old. His first performance was at the age of 7, where he played the organ in concert at the New Friendship Baptist Church.

Traveling to and from Kontars studio in Dayton, Don soon taught himself how to write bars, create beats and produce his own music.

At the age of 14 Don Moore was introduced to bass legend and funk icon Bootsy Collins through a youth music program called R.O.O.T.S. (Realizing Our Own Talents and Skills), created by Collins himself.
