The musician Balbina represents the Academy for Popular Music (AfPM) and the associated forum ‘POLYTON’ as spokesperson and creative director. In this role, she plays a key role in shaping the strategy and content of the forum's formats.
The Warsaw-born Berliner is best known for her cinematic pop-art sound. The singer-songwriter and producer received the prestigious German Music Writer's Prize in 2018 for her special lyrical writing, which has made her songs unique in Germany. As a songwriter, she writes for Herbert Grönemeyer, among others.
Balbina has released four albums and two eps to date and usually performs her concerts accompanied by the German Film Orchestra Babelsberg. Der Spiegel is of the opinion that Balbina should be celebrated like ‘Björk or Sia’, for Rolling Stone she is ‘the greatest discovery in German pop for a long time’.
