In 1995, she was invited to attend the Vaganova Academy in St. Petersburg, but her mother believed it was too far away, so she trained at Vadim Pisarev’s school in Donetsk. At age 15, she became one of Pisarev’s dance partners, and danced at his company Donetsk Opera and Ballet Theater. She graduated in 2000.

Iana became a soloist at Donetsk Opera and Ballet Theatre after her graduation. Two years later, in order to be closer to her family, she moved to Kyiv Ballet as a principal dancer.

Mic Donet

Singer | Songwriter

Born in Germany, Mic was always a creative and musical child.

With his amazing skill, he became renowned throughout Germany during the first season of The Voice of Germany and his following album PLENTY OF LOVE, which was praised as Grammy-worthy by Xavier Naidoo and stayed in the German Top 10 for almost 20 weeks.

His career began much earlier, though, as a break-dancer and back vocalist for some of the finest Soul musicians of his day. In Germany, when people talk about “soul music,” his name is a reference.

He signed his first record deal at the age of 19 and released his debut album STILLE WASSER (in German) in 2004, which is still considered cult in scene circles. His track JEMAND DA, which reached the top 100 of the German charts at the time, is still in many people’s ears.

His charisma and an incredible range of voices ranging from operatic theatricality to soft hip-hop romance to deep soul phrasing distinguish him as an international musician (Süddeutsche Zeitung).

Great performers like Erykah Badu, Stevie Wonder, and Carlos Santana, with whom Mic was allowed to tour, acknowledged this as well.

His second English-language album, RISE AND SHINE, was released in 2015. Mic then decided to take a longer artistic break, during which he traveled throughout the world alone, bearing only a backpack and flip-flops.

Mic has been involved in various projects since his return, including the singing voice of the Netflix production ‘ARLO THE ALLIGATOR BOY’ (German version), in collaborations with Sami Deluxe, and the release of the single ‘Panzerglas’ in March 2021.

Mic is currently working on single track releases as well as a new album.

Laylah

Acting | Singing | Modelling

Laylah was born in Munich into a sports & artists family, so she was immersed in both worlds from the very beginning.

She found her passion in acting and singing once she joined a musical school based in Munich at the age of 6 continuing until now in her seventh year.

“The combination of acting, singing and dancing like at the musical school makes a lot of sense to me, even though I do see myself more acting in front of a camera rather than on stage. I’m still young and I am looking forward to learning and diving more into this fantastic artistic world.”

Laylah attends grade 7 at high school and apart from her current acting and singing activities she is part of a semi-professional gymnastics team.
