This Chicago singer-songwriter specializing in "roots/Americana" is often compared to Lucinda Williams and Iris DeMent. Ilsabe recently released her debut CD, "Little Lost Cause," of which HybridMagazine.com writes,"O'Connell's songs are heartfelt and emotional, full of the bittersweet beauty that so much of today's new alt-folk lacks. "Nothing I Don't Like" is an exercise in songwriting perfection, drawing lines like: 'The love that you make/ is a little insincere/ it's a postcard that says/ Wish you were here'. Her voice attains the dirty angelic quality of Lucinda Williams at many times on the album, but never more prominently than when she coolly sings those twisted love/hate lyrics."1340mag.com calls it one of the year's best releases. Ilsabe performs regularly in Chicago.
