Childhood
Eva was born in Leningrad on May 19, 1975. She inherited her interesting surname from her father, who was an ethnic Pole. When she was little, she often had to visit her father's homeland.
Eva remembered well one unpleasant moment from her childhood. As a little girl, she fell in love with film actor Vladimir Konkin and told her parents about it. Naturally, they did not take it seriously and even laughed a little at the child. If Konkin was shown on TV, then the little girl’s name was called: “Eva, come quickly, they are showing your love.” At these moments the girl blushed, burned with shame, she felt unpleasant and a little hurt, as if she had done something obscene. When Eva became an adult, she told her mother that they had traumatized her then. And the parents asked their daughter for forgiveness: “Daughter, we didn’t know that it was so serious for you.”
From this childhood incident she learned a good lesson for herself into adulthood. No matter what her children say, never, even if it is very funny and she wants to choke with laughter, Eva will not show this to the child. Because for a little person this can be very important.
Otherwise, Eva had a very happy childhood; the singer remembers these years with special tenderness and warmth. Eva had an excellent relationship with her parents. The family was intelligent and at that time considered wealthy. The girl studied music. Her father instilled a love for this type of art in her; he was able to explain to his daughter and show her what good music is. As a child, Eva listened to musical compositions performed by Ella Fitzgerald. There was an antique piano in the house, on which the girl learned to play and sing.
Years of study
She was the only child in the family, so to speak, raised at home. The girl did not go to kindergarten. And when her grandmother took her to school for the first time, Eva was in a stressful state: the little girl opened the door to the classroom, and there were a lot of people there. At first she didn't like school at all. When her grandmother brought Eva to class in the morning, she didn’t want to stay here. The girl asked the uncles and aunties who brought their children to school to pick her up and take her away from here. But it’s clear that no one took her anywhere, she had to turn around and go to class.
Along with secondary school and music, Eva studied dancing and choreography; her idol in this art form was the ballerina Anna Pavlova. However, in childhood, when all the girls dreamed of the stage, Eva dreamed of becoming an astronaut. She loved to read books, especially science fiction. Her favorite TV show was “Obvious - Incredible” with host Sergei Kapitsa. She nevertheless later realized her dream of a cosmic and unknown world, working and performing in a group with the fantastic name “Guests from the Future.”
When Eva graduated from school, she did not have the slightest idea of what she would like to become in the future. Parents, of course, insisted that their daughter receive a higher education. At that time, Eva needed to improve her cultural level and get a good humanitarian base. Therefore, in 1991, she chose the Krupskaya Leningrad State Institute of Culture to enroll, after graduating from which she received a specialist diploma in “librarian-bibliographer”.
Along with this, Eva received another higher education, her second profession is an information management and marketing specialist.
And after all this, the girl submitted documents for admission to the St. Petersburg College of Arts, after graduating from which she received a diploma as a choreographer.

"Visitors from the future"
Having received three specialties, Eva never worked in any of them. While still studying, she first appeared on stage with the rap group “A-2”, first as a dancer, then as a backing vocalist. Polna worked in this team for a year, after which she began performing independently. Eva’s favorite genre at that time was classic rock music of the 70s. In many St. Petersburg clubs she wonderfully performed similar musical compositions. There was even a case when Eva sang on stage for five hours, but her name was not known to St. Petersburg music lovers.
Eva Polna's real creative career began in 1996. DJ and composer Yuri Usachev worked at that time in the Cast Iron Skorokhod team. At one point, the idea of creating a new pop group came to his mind. So, together with Evgeny Arsentyev, they came up with “Guests from the Future”, and invited Eva Polna, whom they saw during a performance in one of the clubs, as a soloist. Soon the singer showed her other talents: she created stage images and costumes, wrote lyrics.
In 1997, the group recorded their first album. The compositions were in jungle style, recording took place at one of the St. Petersburg home studios. They made the album literally overnight and gave it the intriguing title “After Hundreds of Years.” Listeners did not immediately accept the six compositions with an unusual sound; the album's circulation was small.
However, soon one of the songs called “Sand Time” brought fame to the group. It was heard and approved by the famous St. Petersburg DJ Groove, he began to broadcast a demo version of the song often, and it unexpectedly ended up on the first lines of the chat. After this, the group “Guests from the Future” received an offer to hold their first performance.
On March 8, 1998, a concert took place at the Titanic club in St. Petersburg. Eva was very surprised when she saw from the stage that the audience was singing along with her, and she sang some songs three times as an encore. This day is considered the official founding date of the group. Soon they released their new songs, which were included in the album “Time Sand”. But popularity was still narrow.
Then Evgeny Arsentiev decided to leave the team. And Yuri Usachev decided to change the style and musical direction of the group. They were left alone with Eva and chose a pop dance style for themselves. Their first song, “Run From Me,” was a success. Eva had a special style of performance – detached and romantic. At the same time, the song had a strong sexual overtones. All this in a short time made the song a hit, it was played on all radio stations, it sounded from music stores and kiosks.
This contributed to the group’s transition to a new level, and Eva and Yuri went to Moscow. Producer Evgeny Orlov signed a contract with them. Several video clips were filmed and the album “Run from Me” was recorded. The group “Guests from the Future” burst into the world of show business; photos of Yuri and Eva appeared on the covers of popular magazines. A series of concerts began, which were completely sold out. Already in 1999, the group “Guests from the Future” became a participant in the final program “Song of the Year”, where Eva performed the composition “Dislike”. And the song “I’m with you” brought them the first Golden Gramophone figurine.
The year 2000 was marked by the release of a new album entitled “Winter in the Heart” and the first foreign tour. In London they shot a video for the song “Games,” which instantly became a hit. Eva could already be collecting “Golden Gramophones”:
- 2000 - for the song “You are somewhere”;
- 2001 - for “Ondine”;
- 2002 - for the composition “He’s a Stranger”;
- 2003 - for the song “Why You”.
The musical compositions of the group “Guests from the Future” firmly established themselves at the top of the domestic charts. Their new album was released every year:
- 2000 - “It’s stronger than me, part 1”;
- 2001 – “Best”;
- 2002 – “Eva”;
- 2003 - “In the Mood for Love”, “It’s Stronger than Me, Part 2”.
They had millions of fans across the country, and music critics recognized the group as phenomenal.
On March 8, 2003, “Guests from the Future” celebrated its first anniversary – five years – among fans. However, less than a month later, in early April, a public celebration of their small anniversary took place in the northern capital, St. Petersburg. A grand concert took place at the Yubileiny Sports Palace.
Along with the performances, everyone in the group did a little bit of their own thing. Yura did not become the general producer. Eva began to take her first steps in the modeling business. No, she did not work as a model, Polna modeled clothes herself, and her new collection “Denim Symphony” was a success during the show.
“Guests from the Future” released several more albums (“Rules of Traffic”, “More than Songs”, “Behind the Star”), but their creative career began to decline. In 2009, Eva Polna announced that Yuri Usachev had left the group.
Biography of Eva Polna
The biography of Eva Polna began from the moment of her birth in Soviet Leningrad; at birth, according to one version, she received the name Elena Polna. And she became Eva Polna after the whole family moved to the Polish town of Lodz near Warsaw.
The baby loved everything beautiful, she was restless, so she often tried everything new. Eva was involved in music and dance clubs, constantly read about adventures and dreamed of going into space.
The father, Leonid Polny, was a talented doctor, and the mother took care of the house and daughter. Moreover, they had nothing to do with creativity, but were simply working and very intelligent people.
At the same time, the girl studied well at school, took part in amateur performances, so she easily entered the Leningrad Academy of Culture and Arts to become a librarian and bibliographer. By the way, Eva loved to sing, so she performed as a member of the musical group “A-2” as a hobby; the girl was a talented rapper.
Among other things, Polna danced and sang in nightclubs of the northern capital. Two years later, the girl joined the vocal and instrumental ensemble “Guests from the Future”, so in tandem with composer Yuri Usachov she sang in pop and jungle styles.
The girl was constantly invited to television shows, until 2009, when the group broke up after releasing their last successful album. The following year, Polna began touring Russia and the world, performing solo. The woman participates in various talent shows, loves performing in themed concerts and doing charity work.
Solo career
The original singer had no intention of leaving the stage and continued her solo performances. They turned out to be quite successful, Eva again replenished her collection of “Golden Gramophones”:
- 2011 - for the song “Ships”;
- 2012 - for the composition “I’m not you either”;
- 2016 - for the song “Little”.
Eva also received an award as the author and performer of the most ordered song on the radio in 2013 (for the song “I’m not you either”). In the same year, she was awarded a prize for her outstanding contribution to the development of popular Russian music.
In 2020, Polna held a big solo concert for Valentine's Day. This holiday is especially suitable for her work, because Eva sings all her songs only about love. A stylish and bright singer, a confident and honest woman, she can make a sparkling joke and laugh contagiously, her voice cannot be forgotten or confused with others - for all these qualities, fans continue to love Eva’s songs and herself.
Personal life
Eva is a very unusual and extravagant woman. This is also her personal life. During her stage career, the tabloid press attributed many affairs to Polna, not only with men, but also with representatives of the fairer sex. Despite such rumors, Eva became the mother of two beautiful girls.
In 2005 she gave birth to Evelyn. Fans of the group “Guests from the Future” really wanted Yuri Usachev to be the singer’s husband and the father of the child, the couple looked too good and harmonious together. However, neither Eva nor Yura ever commented or gave interviews about their personal relationships. And the father of Evelyn’s first daughter was Russian pop singer Denis Klyaver. Eva carefully hid this and was never going to talk about it. But Denis himself will inform the whole country about their common daughter.
The second daughter Amalia was born in 2007. Her father was businessman and restaurateur Sergei Pilgun, with whom Eva was married. Despite the appearance of their daughter, the couple was unable to maintain their marital relationship and separated. Now Eva is raising her daughters herself.
The girls have interesting names; Eva chose them herself. As the singer says, she wanted the name of each of her daughters to be very beautiful and at the same time international. Since our lives now take place all over the world (work, travel), girls with their own names should feel comfortable in any country.
Eva’s daughters are very affectionate and at home they call their mother Musya (a derived name from Mamushi). The singer tries to be both a friend and a mentor for the girls. She instills in the little ones a philosophical attitude to life; explains that there are objective and subjective opinions; warns that on the path of life they will have to deal with a lot of bumps, from which she tries to protect the girls if possible. Otherwise, Eva does not like to talk about her personal life, because she considers it a space where the singer can relax, unwind, calm down and draw new strength for creativity.
Eva Polna is always very bright on stage, and she prefers to be the same in everyday life, because everything around her is already full of dullness and despondency, she needs to cheer herself up with colorful clothes. She is always feminine and elegant; it is unlikely that anyone will be able to see her in shorts and a T-shirt. Her main motto: “Make life brighter with your own hands.”
Eva Polna's family
Eva Polna’s family was international, since on her mother’s side all relatives were Gypsies, and on her father’s side they were Poles. At the same time, there were never any creative people in the family, so my parents treated singing and dancing as something frivolous.
Evochka was an incredibly bright child, so her parents protected and pampered their only girl. The mother constantly supported her child’s aspirations and carefully guided her in the right direction, since she was next to her daughter.
Her parents never abandoned Eva; they live with her and help raise their granddaughters, calling them their youngest daughters.
