Olivera (or Katriina Ullakko from Espoo) is pretty much unknown yet to the wider audience despite having millions of Spotify streams and important international releases. She has released so far four indie-pop EPs on her won, but she has written (and sung) for other artists like Tiësto's Affliction.
Her UMK 2022 entry Thank God I'm an atheist was born from an idea she had played with since childhood: What if one of the religions is actually right and we are living forever? She finds the idea of eternal life depressing but she thinks the song itself is her best and most important so far. She started writing songs at 11 and this particular song was written in half an hour!
She has dreamed of Eurovision since 2011, when Da da dam made an impact. Today she's friends with Paradise Oskar so he can surely give her some tips. For further listening here are No more, Trust, Lot to live and I can't sleep.
Listen Thank God I'm an atheist here.
