Hearing her sing and play the blues gives you goose bumps, the beauty and authenticity of her voice makes you dizzy and warm. She's got rhythm and much more. A unique artist with a bright future. » © Jean-Michel PILC« The effortless execution in a beautiful phrasing - is one thing I personally like to hear from a singer. Olinka has it » © Lionel LOUEKE« Voix féline, enjôleuse et parfaitement maîtrisée et piano minimaliste, qui s'insinue dans vos oreilles, votre cerveau, pour mieux vous mordre les tripes et vous faire fondre. Laissez-vous aller... le plaisir est au bout. » © Emmanuel P. DJOB___________à propos du "Gershwin's Blues" Album« Each track shows true imagination in its instrumental setting, texture and arrangement. It is music that should be listened to more than once to discover its different layers. I know I will and urge you to do the same » © Rick MARGITZA« Olinka is a gifted pianist and vocalist of russian origins (from Latvia). It's revealed in her very apropo project Gershwin's Blues, baring her soul and heart beautifully and honestly. I continue to enjoy listening frequently to the wonderful and intimate interpretations of some of the best music ever written. » © Darryl HALL
