  • Madzia Stopka

    Magdas love for singing started when her family moved to small rural village just hour south from Krakow Poland, and joined local primary school. Magda was asked to sing a solo song in her first music class in a new school and she has never stopped singing since. At age of 16 she has joined a local wedding band and sang for 5 years until she has relocated to UK.

    Magda joined The Blighty Belles in 2022 and loves the sound of harmonies, which The Blighty Belles are famous for.

    With Magda’s Polish background, WWII was taught in schools at an early age and school trips to Auschwitz in Oswiecim were on every school agenda.

    It was hard to comprehend that such evil happened just 60 minutes away from her home, and even harder that her grandmothers sister, whom she met once, was one of the few Auschwitz Survivors, captured as a young woman and managed to escape. She lived for many years after till in a small village near by.
