From endless travelling through space and beyond, she is very much influenced by the greatest poets of their eternal time as well as the sung stories of some musicians, and she combines poetry and music as two siblings. Various music experiences turn her to the soft genres of acoustic folk-pop melodies, and lyrics become the stories about life, about love and about freedom - the common search in everybody's soul. Born in Russia and raised in Slovenia, she writes in English, Slovene and Russian, transforming the borders between them into new pathways of understanding and comunication.

She began her music career as a singer in the project Allegro non troppo. After this she founded her own band Swarga. She has performed at all major stages and festivals in Slovenia and abroad (Croatia, Austria, Malta, Italy, Spain, Czech republic, Serbia and Russia), with the band Swarga she represented the European Capital of Culture 2012 in Belgium. Later she continued her career as a singer-songwriter in collaboration with various musicians from Europe and Russia.

Though music is her first choice, she writes poetry, short stories and fairytales. In October 2012 she has published her first book of poetry, Potovanja Duše (Jorneys of the Soul), in 2020 her second book, Preraščanje pomladi (Overgrowing the Spring) and in 2021 her children’s book Hiša gospoda Marčimarja (The House of Mr Marchimar).

Her music could be described as an acoustic poetic folk that combines various elements.

Press mentions:

"In songs that sometimes remind of Joni Mitchell's classics, or they resonate with Suzanne Vega or someone else of world fame, Sabina Vostner subtly articulates changes in nature, self-liberation, the necessary sincerity, connection of people and much more."

(Andraž Gombač: Primorske novice, 2020)

"A guy with a guitar is a cliché. The girl with the guitar, despite the fact that hundreds of women's voices and creative spirits have marked world music, still arouses some surprise ...
Sabina Vostner radiates special energy on the stage."

(Vesna Humar: Primorske novice, 2018)

""When I sing, I am really telling stories"
Swarga is a rather unusual band for the Slovenian musical climate. A mix of acoustics, ambient, minimalism, ethno and electronics, mixed in a kind of "chill-out" musical narrative, stimulates the listeners with the need for intimate listening, and at the same time it is a music that is fully alive on the festival stage or in some evening summer garden."
