Ebony’s father is…
“Music came into my life because my father is a singer. He passed on this passion for music to me since I was very little.” explains Ebony in her portrait. “I played guitar first, then I did piano, I did music theory, then I sang, I listened to Rihanna, Diamonds in the sky, it upset me” adds the budding singer.
But who is her famous father? Well, it’s Thierry Cham! He’s a Guadeloupean zouk singer whose song you’ve definitely heard at least once because it was a real hit in the 2000s.. It is called Ocean. If you have any doubts, look for her on the platforms, you will most certainly recognize her.
