Rumors and Controversy
Alabama didn’t like the direct messages sent to her by the drummer of the California-based band, Echosmith, Graham Sierota, in 2016. The drummer, who was then 20 years old, sent the then-13-year-old Alabama private messages telling her that she was ‘beautiful’ and even invited her to his parents’ big family BBQ. Alabama dismissed his request and responded by telling him that she was a child. Her father, Travis, addressed the issue in an interview with The Blast, revealing that he was disgusted when he learned that someone was sending his underage daughter party invites. Sierota later apologized saying that he did not know that Alabama was a minor – Alabama replied by saying that she’d forgiven him.

RiceGum posted a video showing Travis’ daughter’s Instagram profile pointing out how she wears excess make-up, follows a lifestyle that doesn’t suit a child, and poses suggestively. Things escalated when Alabama’s parents intervened, threatening RiceGum publicly, and his video was shortly afterwards taken down by YouTube, which cited bullying and privacy concerns.
