Early Life Sasha was born in Moscow. Her father was a pilot, her mother was a flight attendant. During her teenage years she was a professional figure skater. Her other passions always included singing and dancing. Distinguished from her Russian contemporaries who were raised on Russian music, Sasha was exposed to word music through her parents international travels and their love of the English language bands. Her early influences were Michael Jacksons «Triller» and his video «Bad», as well George Michaels albums and concerts and videos of Madonna. At the age of 15 Sasha organized her first dance group which performed at many venues throughout Russia. The success of this group allowed Sasha to record her first songs. Professional Career When Sasha was 19 she attracted the attention of Yuri Aizenshpitz – the legendary music producer. At once they began to work on Sashas first album and her first music video whish appeared on MTV Russia. The reviews of her first work produced critical acclaim in the media. She was being touted as the «Russian Modonna». This was followed by touring all over Russia with great success. Soon after, her appearance on the covers of Playboy and Maxim and numerous artcles in Cosmo and Vougue only increased her popularity. Her unique beauty was noticed by the famous Russian art foto studio «Fresh Art». They included Sashas photos as part of their exhibition.

In spite of her tremendous success in the Russian music industry Sasha feels as though she did have compromise between Russian musical taste and her own creative fulfilment.

Her new album in English starts the new era of her musical passion that reflects her true feelings. Read more on Last.fm.
