Mini Biography: Alina was born and raised in St. Petersburg, Russia, where she lived until she was 17. She was first inspired musically by her mother, who was an amateur opera singer. Alina began singing and playing piano at age five, and when she was nine she started performing (as a lead vocalist) and touring with a classical choir called Aurora. Some of her favorite artists growing up were Michael Jackson, Aretha Franklin and Marvin Gaye.
When she was 14, Alina began writing songs on piano, but in St. Peterberg there weren’t many studios for her to record and develop her music. “In Russia it was hard to record – there wasn’t a lot of opportunities,” she explained. Alina did perform a couple times on Russian television shows.
Then in 2005 (at age 17) she met her future husband, Brad Smith, who was on a business trip to Russia. The couple subsequently married, and Alina moved with Smith to his home is Las Vegas, NV. Alina and Smith (who co-manages Alina with attorney David Graubert) now commute between their homes in Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
