Soul jazz artist. Making jazz simple for your soul. I am a Ukrainian-born composer and songwriter, performing artist and pianist based in Berlin. My compositions span jazz, pop, neo-soul, contemporary and R&B, rap and hip-hop, showcasing modern sounds and unique harmonic changes. I started playing piano at the age of 7 and never stopped. My performing career began from playing in the Ukrainian protestant church as keyboardist in a full band with choir. Based in Kyiv, later I was playing on different stages and discovering new musical horizons and got invited to perform in other countries and being traveling all over the world . When the war started,I evacuated from Kyiv to Berlin and began to re-create my musical career on a new place. Here I create my original music, write new songs, performing on all kinds of stages, in concerts, events and musical festivals; collaborate regularly on live sessions as well as doing studio recordings with other musicians.
