Ilaria Graziano (also known as "ILA", born in Naples, Italy), is an Italian singer.[1] She gained popularity with the release of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex and the subsequent original soundtrack, written by composer Yoko Kanno.
Graziano started playing violin and singing at a very young age. In 1997 she first joined Europe's female pop group, Salsaruba. She has since participated in several projects of various artists in Italy including the album, FLUX, with DJ Miele (Stefano Miele) in 2002.
After her studies in a painting school, she took an opportunity to leave Italy for London.
Few months later, she performed the words and vocals with Kanno for the Wolf's Rain O.S.T. track 14 "Valse de la Lune". She also appears on Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex O.S.T. 2 ("I Can't Be Cool", "I Do", "Where does this Ocean Go").
Recent work includes performing songs for the new release of Stand Alone Complex O.S.T. 3 (featuring "Christmas in the Silent Forest", "Dew"). Graziano has also performed songs for the 2005 Cowboy Bebop soundtrack, Tank! THE! BEST!.
