Katya Volkova
Katya Volkova is a Belarusian singer and songwriter who has been building a new life in Germany after facing political persecution in her home country. She gained initial fame by participating in the casting show 'I Want in VIA Gra' and later pursued a solo career. In 2020, she was arrested during a women's march and sentenced to 12 days in prison. In a recent interview, Volkova recounted the struggles she faced during the pandemic, including the cancellation of her performances and the drastic reduction in her income from royalties. As the political situation in Belarus deteriorated, she was offered a lucrative concert opportunity that was tied to the elections, but she refused to compromise her beliefs. After participating in protests against the government, she found herself on a blacklist, leading her to leave the country in search of stability and safety.
