On 8th October, 1985, in Honolulu, Hawaii, Peter Hernandez and Bernadette San Pedro Bayot brought their son Peter Gene Hernandez into this world. Hernandez got his nickname Bruno as a baby, because his father thought he resembled the professional wrestler Bruno Sammartino. Bruno was born and raised in a musical family with five siblings. His father Peter loved 1950s doo-wop music, and he together with Bruno’s mother Bernadette, who is a talented singer, put on a Las Vegas-style revue.

At the age of 12, Bruno’s parents got divorced, and he moved out of family’s house with his brother and father. They lived in the back of car, on rooftops, and in an abandoned bird zoo.

Bruno attended President Theodore Roosevelt High School in Hawaii. In 2003, after his graduation, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue his musical career. During his time in high school, Bruno formed a band named The School Boys, together with his friends. He wrote some songs and was singing backup.
