Darja "Rise Up"

(Independent)

Hailing from Riga, Latvia, and being raised in Germany and the UK, the multilingual singer/songwriter and actress, is already moving the international music scene. She gained notoriety on Germany's Popstars and ITV’s Pop Idol in the UK. After her performance of Shakira’s "Underneath Your Clothes", Simon Cowell drew a comparison between her and Shakira: she possesses "that certain X factor", and as a result, he states, "as a pop star package, I think it was excellent". Rise Up is produced by the accomplished team of The Practice Worldwide.
