Katia

A classically trained pianist who remains one of the youngest vocal soloists ever to perform with the Russian Philharmonic, New York-based singer-songwriter Katia has a pop music style as unique as her background. Songs like her debut single "Girl Like Me" reveal her classical melodicism within a pure pop context, in which her lyrics-about the "day-to-day stuff that girls go through," she says in typically engaging perfect English-are nailed by her beautiful but insistent singing voice.
