Daria Polo
The Journey from Ukrainian Finalist to UK Singer-Songwriter
Let us introduce you to Daria Polo, a British singer-songwriter known for her performance on "The Voice" of Ukraine. She has recently established herself in London. Her feature on Jessie J's show and her debut performance at Sofar Sounds highlight her passion for becoming an established singer.

During a brief conversation with Daria, she mentioned that she has recently started singing in English. This language has inspired her to write more original music to bring positive and powerful energy to the world. While listening to her majestic and rich voice on her Instagram feed, where she experiments with various genres, music production, and songwriting techniques by analyzing the theory behind pop music, I discovered her performances on "The Voice" of Ukraine. I was captivated by her authentic and powerful voice. Her vocal style is influenced by timeless alternative rock artists like Avril Lavigne, Joan Jett, Radiohead, and Muse.
During her blind auditions, it was evident how effortlessly she navigated between different octaves, from the gentle baritone introduction of “Vabiti”, which stands for Attract in English, to the mid-alto section that helped to develop an unexpected mezzo-soprano section in the end. Daria's range and vocal style were clearly on display.
Daria Polo's versatility is not limited to her vocal range. She plays the piano and sings in both Ukrainian and English. Here at IndieWavves, we love discovering new music in various languages. Her interpretation of “Bezodnya”, which stands for Abyss in English, exemplifies her ability to transform a song into a powerful, iconic composition while preserving its lyrical essence and meaning. Her energy and charisma elevate the song's aesthetic, contrasting with the minimalist approach often seen in contemporary vocal performances. Daria's singing reflects her technical skill, background, education, beliefs, and character.
We eagerly anticipate Daria Polo's upcoming releases and are confident in her potential for a successful debut as a singer-songwriter in the UK. Make sure to follow Daria Polo on her socials to be the first to hear her upcoming music!
