Born in Bonn Germany and raised in California; Von Banke decided she wanted to pursue a career in vocals at the optimistic age of 8. 

     She began pursuing her craft with vocal lessons and embarked on several, exceedingly long, car journeys to open mic's around Los Angeles which would blockade her parents’ Sundays for a large duration of her teenage years. 

​

     She was the youngest person accepted into the International Music College in Freiburg Germany at 16.

     Throughout her wide and extended array of musical studies; including Theory, Business and Music Technology (IE: Studio Recording, Mixing, Stagehand work etc.), she grew ever more fascinated in the world of digital audio to create something complex and uniquely her own.

     In 2015, much to the confusion of those around her, she moved to (Always Raining) Ireland, to focus solely on Songwriting and Composition. During her extended years in Ireland, she has worked with several songwriters and musicians on Film, Stage and Recorded Productions. 

​

     In 2020, Von Banke completed her first self-written and produced LP ‘Awake’. With a unique writing style; relatable lyrics and a mere 90 meter changes - Awake is a coming of age album (with a diverse array of sustained belting notes and hopefully minimal emotional distress inflicted upon hired musicians).
