Mikovski was classically trained at the Maîtrise de la Loire in Montbrison.[3] She went on to study at the Conservatoire de Lyon, where she became influenced by jazz and funk. She describes her sound as "poptimistic".[4]
She composes her songs a cappella while walking, and performs as a duo with Ivan Callot, who does the arrangements.[2] For her pseudonym, she chose a Polish-sounding last name as a way to "break all stereotypes" and create a persona allowing her to have more fun in her shows.[5][6] Mikovski describes herself as a "beast on stage".[2]
Mikovski is influenced by artists such as Ella Fitzgerald, Pomme, Camille, and Janelle Monáe.[7]
Mikovski has earned several awards for her music, including the Centre de la Chanson de Paris' grand prize in 2015.[8]
