Biography


Katarína was born in Prešov, to a Czech mother and Slovak father. In Prešov she attended the Ján Adam Raymann Gymnasium. After finishing school, she studied philosophy.

Music career


Katarína Knechtová debuted on the Slovak music scene in 1996 in the band IMT Smile led by Ivan Tásler. One year later she left the band with drummer and moved to Peha band, which was later in 1999 called the revelation of a year in Slovakia. Two years later, Katarína won the Aurel award as the best female singer (in 2005 she won again). She is also a winner of OTO award in 2007.

Even though she is a writer of a lot of lyrics, she admits that her "main writer" is Vlado Krausz.[1]

In 2008, she left her band Peha to pursuit a solo career.
