Mini bio

How it started.

Poli started singing at four and grew up with the children’s group Bon-Bon. She studied clarinet in Sofia and later film directing at Bulgaria’s National Academy for Theatre and Film Arts.

The Eurovision connection.

She represented Bulgaria with “Na Inat” in 2011, hosted Junior Eurovision in Sofia in 2015, then returned to Eurovision in 2016. “If Love Was a Crime”, which she co-wrote the lyrics for, finished fourth.

A fresh chapter.

After time spent reassessing her direction, Poli signed with Virginia Records and joined Sofia Songwriting Camp in 2025. There she created “Моята душа” with Etta Zelmani, Acho and DJ Pancho. Its pop and drum and bass sound includes a touch of the Bulgarian folk song “Дилмано, Дилберо”.
