Alisa Voks is a Russian singer who has received recognition from a multimillion-dollar audience as a soloist with the Leningrad band. No, this is not an exaggeration. What is the song “Exhibit” worth, a clip for which over 60 million people watched the Internet! And all this is mainly due to Alice Vox's unsurpassed vocals. The biography of the girl can be called rich and interesting, but first things first.
Childhood and youth
Alisa Mikhailovna Voks (Kondratyeva is her real name) was born in Leningrad. It happened on June 30, 1987. Giving an interview now and telling about her biography, Alice Vox says that in her childhood she was looking for a convenient moment to climb into a chair and sing a song, tell a poem.
The girl’s mother, who dreamed about her child’s career on stage, recorded the baby at the age of 4 in a ballet studio and put her on a strict diet. After about a year, it became clear to everyone that, unfortunately, the girl was not making much progress in this field. But Alice’s mother didn’t give up and recorded her in the Music Hall children's studio, where the teachers soon appreciated the vocals of the young talent.
It's time to go to school. Alice, keen on productions, music, did not have enough time for lessons. Parents felt that study was more important, so they insisted on leaving their daughter from the Music Hall, allowing them to do vocals in the school circle.
Upon graduation, Alisa entered SPbGATI without any difficulties, and a year later she moved to the capital of Russia and transferred to GITIS. When the girl turned 20, she was forced to return to her hometown (due to financial problems) and continue her studies at the University of Culture and Arts.
Alice Vox biography: career start
After graduation, the girl worked as a host at weddings, many other celebrations, was a vocalist in the NEP restaurant. But the first success came right after the start of Alice’s collaboration with the Duhless club. She skillfully improvised on stage, singing popular motifs to the electronic beat of a DJ. Very soon, the audience appreciated this direction, and a girl named MC Lady Alice began to be invited to perform at prestigious nightclubs. But a sharp turn in the biography of Alisa Voks-Burmistrova (this is her last name after marriage, but about the singer’s personal life a bit later) occurred in 2012, when she successfully auditioned and was accepted into the Leningrad group.
Finest hour
At first, the girl took part only in the studio recordings of Leningrad, replacing Julia Kogan, who went on maternity leave, but promised to return. But already in 2013, Alice, who pleasantly surprised everyone with her serious vocal abilities, charisma and self-confidence, became a full member of the group and entered the stage. She herself sang all the women's parties in the collective’s compositions, and together with Sergei Shnurov arranged on the stage such provocative, incendiary and frank shows that some people literally got their hair on end.
It is interesting that the leader of the group and the soloist allowed such behavior only on stage, but behind the scenes Alice called him by name and patronymic for a long time, even dropped her eyes when talking with Sergei Shnurov.
“Patriot”, “Exhibit”, “Fire and Ice”, “Bag” - these and many other songs became real hits. Alice's vocals, so sonorous and multifaceted, could not help but attract attention, not interest.
Having walked along such an interesting, funny and scandalous path, Shnurov and Voks in 2016 decided to stop cooperation. According to the singer, she just wanted to finish the scandalous stage of her biography and pursue a solo career. According to some sources, the initiator of the break was Shnurov himself, but the singer does not give any specific comments on this issue.
Personal life
Many fans of the singer are also interested in this page from the biography of Alice Vox-Burmistrova. For how many years she appeared in public in revealing outfits, behaved on the stage either playfully or defiantly, gave interviews on a variety of topics, but she preferred not to spread about personal life all these years. It is only known that even before participating in Leningrad, she married the famous photographer and club life lover Dmitry Burmistrov. Alice always respected her husband, reckoned with his opinion, spoke only positively about him. The girl has repeatedly said that this is a wise person who understands the need for her piquant behavior on stage that he perfectly sees the difference between the show and reality.
But already at the end of 2015, they began to notice her without a wedding ring, at the same time she deleted all the joint photos with her husband from social networks. Dmitry and Alice finally broke off at the very beginning of 2016.
