Yulia was born on February, 14th, Valentine's day, into a family of musicians in small provincial town of Barrow in Zauralye.
The inclination to perform appeared in Yulia very early: at three years of age, and under rather interesting circumstances!
In family there was a small puppy who always nipped at her heels. In her family home musicians were frequent visitors ,
and one day, during " a creative sit-round gathering ", the father was playing piano and was singing the song.
Looking in the surface reflection on the piano, daddy sees Yulia on a table -
dancing to his music while just out of reach of the biting puppy,who is on the floor .
Since that moment it was clear; that this child exhibits great creative potential.
Her first performance on the big stage took place with group " Agatha Christie " when she was 4. It was small experiment of her parents.
After her dancing improvisations there was 30 seconds of silence, followed by a standing ovation.
At the age of 5 Yulia auditioned for the dance group Glowworm . Despite the fact that she was the smallest/youngest of the group,
she was accepted. A year later, when she was six, the group (in which her father also worked) was invited to perform in Moscow.
There, she participated in several musical events in the recreation center at MAI.
Meanwhile, her mother got a job at the recreation center as manager of the children's department.
In Moscow the rehearsal base of musicians was in a recreation center.Yulias' mother got a job in the same recreation center,
as manager of the childrens department. Yulia spends her free time with musicians. In that recreation center there is an
annual New Years performance of Faust . At that time Yulias father wrote music, did arrangements for musical
parodies of theatre. "Faust's" director was aware of Yulias talent , and asked her to audition.
She played the leading role in that years performance and was paid on the same level with adult actors the first salary.
Being only 7,she filled her days at: combined rehearsals at theatre, parties with musicians,
study at school, employment in dance troupe Crane . Her creative potential had landed her an invitation from
L. Azadanova that Yulia join her dance group, and she did so.
In pair with the worthy partner, they were two-time Champions of Moscow in their class.
After spending all her time talking with musicians and listening to music, Yulia started singing.
Her best execution became Toni Braxton and Whitney Houston songs. All musical party, having heard her sing, was in a shock.
After the event director Polejko has made Yulia an offer - to play a leading role in New Years performances of the
Temple of the Christ of the Savior. Finally, this performance became the most popular show in Moscow (2001).
She did with such success that she was chosen to play the lead in the next years (2002) performance as well.
She again auditioned to take part in New Year's performance in the Temple of the Christ of the Savior - where she played the
leading role , and has taken part in 40 performances.
On March, 7th, 2003 " the new era " in her creativity - " Factory of Stars 2 "(Fabrika Zvozdi) has begun. The producer of the project,
was Maxim Fadeev, also the native of city the Barrow. In 1996 of their paths had already crossed - Yulia was the backing-vocalist
on an album for Linda of "Raven". In the voting of Fabrika Zvozdi 2 Savicheva reached the semifinal, but she did not win.
