At the age of 21, Russian-born singer Olya Viglione left for New York, set on following her dreams. She found herself on the Lower East side, playing keyboards, and touring with Jesse Malin, where she found herself sharing the stage with the likes of Urge Overkill, Clem Burke (Blondie), and Wayne Kramer. One night at The Bowery, she met Brian Viglione, one half of The Dresden Dolls, and the rest, as they say, is history.
