Milenasong - Family Tree

Milenasong is Berlin-based Sabrina Milena, a Norwegian/Slovenian/Croatian, and Seven Sisters is her debut full-length album on Monika Enterprise (February 2007). The record was mixed in Bernd Jestram's (Tarwater) studio together with Milenasong and legendary folk pioneer Jeff Tarlton. Milenasong's music weaves together Norwegian folklore, English folk-rock, forgotten memories and poetry.
Ok, this is what you can read on the official press release. What is not said is that - like some well-informed people pretend - her mother is Vashti Bunyan, her father Tom Rapp (Pearls Before Swine) and her brothers and sisters are dealing with groups like Animal Collective and Espers… What a family! Any confirmation?

Some friends of mine, Dark Captain Light Captain (www.myspace.com/darkcaptain)played on this record. Which meant I got to meet Milena when they did some shows together in London.

While the genealogical roots you have described above strike me as highly implausible, I can confirm she has lovely lovely hair. I hope this helps.
