Bat Ella was born in Dimona to Yael and Yitzchak, members of the Persian and Aleppo communities which founded Dimona in the 1950s.[1] She grew up in a musical household. [2]

At the age of 9, she participated in the 6th Children's Songs Festival (1976) with the singers Ilana Rubina and Miri Aloni.[3]

In the winter of 2021, she initiated and produced a series of tribute shows to mark the tenth anniversary of Debbie Friedman's death,[10] including the performance of Debbie Friedman's songs in Hebrew, at the Rabin Center Tel Aviv, on the American television network Jewish Life Television, on broadcasts of the JMI Jewish Music Institute in England and more.[11][12]
