Krisdayanti was born on March 24, 1975 in Batu, East Java, to a couple from Trenggono (father) and Rachma Widadiningsih (mother). According to the father, the name comes from Javanese language, kris, which means heirloom and power, which means strength, so Krisdayanti is a heritage that has power. He has an older sister, Yuni Shara, who is also a singer, and a younger sister with a different father, Kartika Sari. Krisdayanti grew up in a poor family and her parents divorced when she was only two years old.

Krisdayanti art blood obtained from his father who is a painter and keroncong artist. All families from his mother's side are also adept at singing, except his own mother. Some Krisdayanti's uncles became church singers and some sang in orchestras in their villages. Together with his brother, Yuni, Krisdayanti has been happy to perform singing and dancing since childhood. Because of his agility when singing, people in his village called Krisdayanti like an Indian puppet. He also often won various singing competitions at that time.

Krisdayanti then entered into the Red and White Studio led by Toto Sugiarno. From the studio Krisdayanti got many opportunities to sing.
