Tatiana Ovsienko Essentials

Starting her impressive career as a vocalist for the Hi-NRG Russian collective Mirage, Tatiana Ovsienko was the face of the Europop band until her 1991 solo debut, Beautiful Girl. Her 2005 collaboration with C.C. Catch, which revisited the German singer's “I Can Lose My Heart Tonight”, became a monster Eurodance hit indebted to the sound's signature ‘80s grooves. Ovsienko has cemented her reputation as an icon of the post-USSR pop explosion with her memorable hits—those songs won her the accolade of Honored Artist of the Russian Federation in 2001.
