Ilene’s parents had a barbershop choir, so she heard live music before being born. This created a life long love for it. Starting on the Hammond she learned so fast that her dad actually could make money with her demonstrations. At eleven she got her first cello; a love for life. Singing came after she moved to Europe; the blues came after getting with Bas. She beat cancer and still performs, for example at the Cello Congress in Berkeley.
