KATYA'S BIOGRAPHY
KATYA IS ROCK AND ROLL'S LOVE CHILD! Katya is a first generation, American-born Russian Freedom Rocker. Born on the same day as Janis Joplin, Katya is an amazing singer, songwriter, performer and musician with a repertoire of over 300 songs. Katya has signed a distribution deal with Music One in the Philippines. Her upcoming, self-produced, debut album, "ROCK LIVES!" consists of nationally known guest stars John Philip Shenale (Tori Amos), Stephen Perkins (Jane's Addiction), Jerry Peterson (Eric Clapton), Adam Cohen (Ray Charles) and Paulo Gustavo (Steve Vai). Her music video, Laying In My Bed (directed by Louis Falzarano) was licensed out to the opening sequence of the MTV show Damage Control. Katya was invited to play the world-famous Venice Boardwalk Carnevale Festival, where her performance drew comparisons to that of a female Jimi Hendrix. This and other great reviews reached legendary John Carruthers of Carruthers Guitars in Venice, CA, who then provided her with a phenomenal endorsement deal of three custom-built guitars with her own custom logo. She also was asked to perform at the E World Music red carpet launch party.
Invited again to play, this time Katya rocked the Inkslinger's Ball at Angel Stadium of Anaheim. Additional great endorsements were provided by Get'm Get'm Wear, TLK (Custom Cases), and Venice Amplifiers (Custom Amps and Mods). Out of 300 performers, Katya was chosen by Chris Douridas and Gemma Dempsey in Los Angeles for an internationally released compilation CD called 2623 Main Street. Her song Bitch and Moan was aired on KLOS, and her Laying In My Bed video was placed on Mike Galaxy's compilation DVD Can't Dance Ver 3, which was screened and distributed at the Sundance Film Festival.

Her roots are Russian and her music is revolutionary. Katya's music career started at the early age of 5, when her grandmother insisted on giving her classical piano and voice lessons. Nina Kent, who was born in Ossa, Russia was a trained classical pianist and singer. At age six, Katya's interests expanded to the guitar which led her to be a songwriter. The keys to the golden kingdom were granted, and Katya's whole world became about music. Today she is an accomplished musician playing piano, keyboard, rhythm and lead guitar as well as being an incredible vocalist and a high-energy performer.
