Early Life and Education

Svetlana Serhiivna Loboda was born on October 18, 1982, in Irpin, Kyiv Oblast, Ukrainian SSR, Soviet Union. Her father, Serhii Loboda , worked at an aircraft design bureau, and her mother, Natalia Loboda, was a product promotion specialist; the couple raised Svetlana alongside a younger sister, Ksenia Loboda.

She enrolled in a specialized music school to master piano, conducting, and vocals. After graduating, she advanced to the Kyiv Variety and Circus Academy, majoring in variety and jazz vocals while moonlighting in bands to fund her studies.

She is of Ukrainian ethnicity with no public disclosure on religious practice.

Career

Svetlana Loboda cut her teeth in the early 2000s with the pop trio Cappuccino before joining Ukraine’s premier girl group VIA Gra in May 2004, replacing Anna Sedokova and starring in videos like “Biologiya.”

She left after four months to launch a solo path, releasing debut album Ty ne zabudesh in 2005 under the guidance of producer Mykhailo Yasinsky.

Early singles “Cherno-Belaya Zima” and “Ya zabudu tebya” set a sultry template, but her 2009 Eurovision entry “Be My Valentine! (Anti-Crisis Girl)” thrust her onto the global stage, peaking at No. 1 in Ukraine despite a 12th-place finish in Moscow.

Post-Eurovision, LOBODA rebranded with edgier electro-pop, dropping albums Anti-Crisis Girl (2009), Ne Ma4o (2012), and the platinum H2LO (2017), which spawned mega-hits “K chertu lyubov,” “Superstar,” and “Sluchaynaya.”

She founded the fashion label F*ckinG DesigneR (later rebranded WILD) in 2014, blending streetwear with couture, and hosted Golos.

Diti while judging Holostyak. Multiple YUNA and M1 Music Awards followed, including Artist of the Year in 2018.

LOBODA terminated all Russian contracts in February 2022, relocated her team to Europe, and released the Ukrainian-language album Made in U (2023) featuring “Turbovolnovka” and “Dva neznayomtsi.”

She has since headlined charity concerts in Berlin, Warsaw, and London, raising over €2 million for Ukrainian hospitals and refugees.

Her brand empire now includes cosmetics and continues to sell out arenas from Riga to Tel Aviv, proving resilience and relevance in wartime.
