She studied piano and vocals at the Kyiv Pioneers Palace and later graduated from the Kyiv State Institute of Culture with a degree in music and performing arts.

Career

Iryna Bilyk’s professional ascent began in the early 1990s, when she emerged as one of the first independent stars of newly sovereign Ukraine.

After winning the Chervona Ruta festival in 1991 with her self-penned song “Ти мій”, she signed with the nascent label Nova Records and released her debut album Так просто (1995).

The title track became a nationwide anthem, propelling the album past one million copies sold—an unprecedented figure for post-Soviet Ukraine.

Albums Nova (1997), Farby (2000), and Bilyk (2002) followed in rapid succession, blending heartfelt Slavic lyrics with polished Western pop production.

By the turn of the millennium she had already filled Kyiv’s Palace of Sports multiple times, earned the title of Merited Artist of Ukraine (1996), and become the face of Ukrainian pop on television and radio.

The 2000s and early 2010s marked her international expansion and artistic maturation.

She recorded the multilingual album Liebe. Bilyk. Love in Germany (2004), released a Polish-language record O mnie (2006), and starred in the musical film Край, мій краю (2003).

Her 2008 live album Na bis captured the energy of her sold-out arena shows, while collaborations with European producers gave her sound a sophisticated, pan-European sheen.

In 2008 she received the honorary title People’s Artist of Ukraine—the youngest woman ever to be awarded it at the time—and was decorated with the Order of Princess Olga (3rd Class).

In recent years, Iryna has balanced legacy and reinvention.

She served as a coach on The Voice of Ukraine, released orchestral and acoustic reinterpretations of her classics, and celebrated her 50th birthday with the anniversary tour “Без границ” (2022–2025), which continues to sell out venues across Ukraine and the diaspora.

New singles, charity concerts for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and high-profile festival appearances keep her firmly in the spotlight, while her mentorship of younger artists ensures her influence extends far beyond her own recordings.

After more than thirty years, Iryna Bilyk remains the undisputed queen of Ukrainian pop—a living bridge between the post-Soviet era and modern independent Ukraine.
