Born in Al­maty, Kazakhstan, and raised in Poland from the age of ten, Maresz is a fier­ce­ly talen­ted musician with an un­deni­able pass­ion for ex­press­ion. Her love for music began early, with mem­o­ries of sing­ing along to pop bands as a child, even while sitt­ing in a high chair. At just six years old, Maresz began her form­al train­ing at a music school, where she took choir clas­ses and star­ted de­velop­ing her voice.

Chris­tina Aguilera was Maresz’s first major in­flu­ence, in­spir­ing her to ex­peri­ment with power­ful vocal styles. Howev­er, dur­ing choir les­sons, a pivot­al mo­ment came when Maresz’s teach­er told her to stop sing­ing through her throat and to focus on per­fect­ing tech­nique. This ex­peri­ence spar­ked a deep com­mit­ment to mas­ter­ing her voice and hon­ing her craft.

At 13, Maresz began mak­ing co­v­ers and post­ing them on Soundcloud, drawn to the idea of be­droom pop as she spent much of her time in her room. When she was 16, she dis­covered the Eas­tern electronic music scene, par­ticular­ly art­ists like Schema and Kedr Li­vanskiy, which in­spired her to start pro­duc­ing music her­self.

Now based in Paris, where she moved two years ago to pur­sue Soci­al Sci­ences, Maresz con­tinues to ex­plore new ar­tistic paths, blend­ing her dis­cip­lined foun­da­tion with the pass­ion and freedom that have al­ways driv­en her music. At 21, she’s a power­ful and evolv­ing art­ist, creat­ing a sound that’s both tech­nical­ly sharp and em­otional­ly raw.
