She was a member of the Russian/Ukrainian girl-group
VIA Gra (AKA
Nu Virgos) from Summer 2003, when she was invited to replace founding member
Alyona Vinnitskaya, who had left to pursue a solo career, until July 2007, when she left on a "tvorcheskiy otpusk" ("creative holiday") to spend more time with her family. Despite hopes that she would return, Vera announced her decision to permanently leave the group in December 2007. She has since pursued her own solo career.
