Anna and Sonia Kuprienko grew up in the small town of
Brovary,
Ukraine, a suburb of
Kyiv. The girls started singing early and were playing instruments at the age of five years. Bloom Twins made a double impact on both music and fashion, opening the door to numerous profile pieces in magazines such as Vogue, Numero, Wonderland and ID. Soon after, a support slot for Eels at O2 Academy in Liverpool was followed by Iggy's artist of the week at MTV. Following the release of "Get up, Stand up" the Bloom Twins were featured on BBC NewsNight with Jeremy Paxman and graced pages of broadsheet coverage in most of the UK's leading newspapers and magazines such as The Sunday Times, The Guardian, Newsweek as well as appeared on BBC Introducing. A period out of the country halted momentum before they made a breakthrough appearance in
UNICEF’s Imagine campaign alongside
Katy Perry and
Will.i.am and other heavyweights of music and media, two years in a row. Bloom Twins Made their mark in Europe and the Far East where they have toured extensively with a number of high-profile artists from
Eels and
LP to
Duran Duran,
Seal and
Nile Rodgers – in addition to headlining their own shows and festival dates: alternative TGE, Standon Calling. Both girls can play the flute, keyboard, harmonica and are learning the drums and guitar. ==Night for Ukraine benefit==
