Irene van Wyk
was known as the Cyclone of South African music, because she sang up a
storm! And if you have ever had the good fortune to hear her sing,
you could close your eyes at any given time and hear our local singing
star match the likes of Tina Turner! Irene has done some solo albums
in her career and started off with singers like Steve Hofmeyr and the infamous
80's band, Chess. One of the latest projects included duets from some of
our countries favorite artists. Sadly Irene passed away in a car
accident in October 2009. She will be dearly missed by the South
African community.
