Biography
In 1966, on September 4, in the city of Novosibirsk, the future singer Yana Diaghileva was born into a family of ordinary workers. The father of the future "rocker" was engaged in heat and power engineering, and my mother worked as an engineer. The Diaghilevs lived in one of the disadvantaged areas of the city of Novosibirsk, and therefore Yana often had to conflict with the local "punks" and even get into fights.
But at the same time, she was a very calm and non-conflict girl, she never started a fight and almost never quarreled with anyone. She preferred to spend her free time alone, reading books.
The exact sciences were hard for the girl, if she coped with the humanities, then physics, mathematics and chemistry - these were always "Cs" with an interference. Also, things were going badly at the music school in the piano class, Yana could not cope with the heavy load and the music teacher advised her parents to give up studying music. In this situation, it seemed that the road to the stage was closed, but later Yanka Diaghileva mastered the instrument on her own. At family gatherings and gatherings, she often played in front of guests.
In 1983, the future rock singer graduated from high school and planned to move to the city of Kemerovo to enter the KemGUKI, but because of the onset of her illness, her plans were not destined to come true. Then Yanka applied to the Institute of Water Transport in her native Novosibirsk. Studying was still far from being in the first place for the girl; she devoted most of her time to the student ensemble "Amigo", in which she began performing almost immediately. By and large, this was the beginning of a career as a rock musician.
In 1985, colleagues from "Amigo" introduced Yanka to the local "rock guru" Irina Letyaeva. Letyaeva helped aspiring musicians and supported the already well-known "rockers" of the country. So K. Kinchev, A. Bashlachev and many others stayed in her apartment very often. At one of the apartments at Letyaeva's, Yanka met Alexander Bashlachev, the rock musician had a great influence on the aspiring performer, later this will become noticeable in Yanka's work.
At the beginning of 1988, the singer recorded her first full-length album, which was called "Not allowed". In the same year, she was first invited to a rock festival. From that moment on, Yanka began to tour actively, including together with the "Civil Defense" group. By the end of the year, a new album, "Declassed Elements", appeared. In total, the singer has written seven albums.
Personal life and death
