How it all started and how it continues…

I never thought I might make music, but never say never. Becoming a dancer has always been a big dream of mine. I started attending a dance conservatory at the age of eleven, but after a couple of years my dreams changed and I started to compose my own songs. For me this was discovering the unknown. I know that dance will stay in my heart forever, but studying a dance conservatory didn’t give me much free time. That is why I changed schools, and I felt more freedom there. I composed my first song at the age of thirteen. I was lying in bed with a cold, wondering what to do. My piano was silent and I told myself that I might try to play a few notes and sing to myself. Out of this improvisation (I didn´t know how to compose) my first song, True Face, was born. My father later chose it as the main theme for his film called “The Meaning and Mystery of Life”. Later, apart of music, I started to focus more on acting and, for example, played the role of Elsa in the play “To Kill the Dragon” by the director Marianna Arzumanová. Music and creativity became my passion and I love it to this day. Apart from my personal creations, I am also interested in music production in general. I am currently studying Songwriting & Music Production at a music university in London. I have composed the entire soundtrack for the feature film “The Secret and the Meaning of Life” (in cinemas in 2023) and produced music for various commercials and jingles.

My family has always supported me in art in every way. My grandfather used to play first violin in an orchestra and I have a lot to thank him for. I play the piano and guitar myself now. When I was five, I played a little girl in a Czech comedy film, directed by my father, called Doblba. Later I starred in the movie The Meaning and Mystery of Life – I was fourteen at that time. I learned that if you want to do something, you must devote yourself to it completely, body and soul.

A few words about my songs…

I write about what is inside me, about what I have experienced, what comes from my heart. It’s my confession. I want to tell people my truth so that I don’t lie to them and especially to myself. IIt is up to each individual how they will experience my songs, if the gates of passion and emotions open for them. I would like to make people happy with my music, but also give them a moment to think and maybe even be sad. All emotions are important to feel.

I listen to all styles of music, if the song is good it’s just good regardless of the genre. And that’s how I compose as well. Each time seemingly on a different wave, yet the same. I don’t stick to one style. I like performers who are not afraid to break out of the “mainstream” and enrich the world with something new.

What the mystery of life means to me… 

I would like to find the meaning of life within myself, to find the true essence of being. I see life as a big game. It is a test for us and an awareness of what we do well and what we do less well. I think everything is given. Nothing is a coincidence. What is meant to happen will happen, and we will experience it. The question is how. This is how we create our future. Maybe there is someone above us who knows all the next steps.

There is a soul in each of us, those 21 grams that represent purity and love. Every person on Earth has a beautiful soul like that. The roles we play, the masks we put on, only distract us from knowing the true essence. We hide behind them. I am speaking from the experiences that the Universe has offered me. We all have this chance.

Why I’m vegan…

I was raised as a vegetarian from birth and later decided to level up and become a vegan at the age of 17 (everyone in my family was vegetarian, mostly vegan at the moment). I was influenced by my parents, but as I got older, I formed my own opinions, looked for information about the animal world, their lives and suffering. I was never tempted to start eating meat. I see no reason to eat it when I can live a perfectly healthy life without killing and torturing the beings that are close to me. Animals are basically the same as us, both biologically and emotionally. I’m not vegan just because of compassion for animals, but also for environmental reasons. The meat and dairy industry is the first cause of the climate crisis and it is destroying our environment.
