Bio

In 1998 me and my sister,who is a drummer, started our first female rock band Serpent's kiss.We made some concerts and after two or three years we made a new female rock band called Arctica with our guitarist.In Serpent's kiss I played the guitar,but in Arctica me and the guitarist decided to change our instruments so I started to play on the bass guitar and it remained my true love till now.In 2005 I started to play in my third band Incident and I'm still doing it.The biggest success for me was maybe in 2007 playing in Berkrock festival in the same day with Brazen abbot.In 2008 with took part in the local competition for the Eurovision song contest.The thing I like most is playing in the different towns of my country so I'll always remember our concerts in Dupnica with Serpent's kiss,in Berkovica(two times) with Incident and in Pernik,where we made our first video after that.
