Julia Volkova

Volkova will always be tied to t.A.T.u.'s explosive arrival, but I find her more interesting for what came after the spotlight faded. Trained at the Gnessin musical college, she's no manufactured pop product, and her later moves into composing, presenting, directing and acting suggest real restlessness. I'm drawn to artists who refuse to be defined by a single cultural moment, and she keeps testing new ground long past the point most would have coasted. There's a stubborn creative energy there that I genuinely respect, regardless of how the wider world remembers the group.
