Born in Ukraine, raised in Australia and settled in Los Angeles, Nataliya is a multi-platinum selling songwriter, as well as recording artist, music producer and actress.
Having lived a life rooted in performing and creating, including singing, acting and ballroom dancing where she rose to become a national champion, her distinctive rich vocals and striking aesthetic attract a loyal and growing following as well as wide respect across the performance arts.
During her time as a television actress, Nataliya starred in the nationally broadcast Australian shows "Trapped" and "Castaway." Following this success, Nataliya moved to Los Angeles, focusing on songwriting and at just 19 was signed with global publishing giant, Kobalt Music. Penning hit after hit song, her credits include "No More Sad Songs" feat.

Her success in releasing her own music attracted attention across radio, magazine, newspapers and digital media in the United States and Australia. Sharing her decision to take a step back from songwriting Nataliya says "I had been behind the scenes for so long, writing and creating songs for other artists. I felt it was time to not only create my music, but to release a project.” The album title translates to 'Love,' and the track list is filled with songs about all kinds of love at different stages." Her leading single, "Jazz Mornings," is nostalgic, reflecting on loving moments with an ex. Another song is about her late father, a love that was lost physically but not spiritually, and another about love that turned to hate, situations she learns and grows from.
Billboard Magazine featured her brave decision to share her story about industry-related sexual harassment.
