Olga Vitalievna Yakovleva (Ольга Витальевна Яковлева), better known by her stage-name Origa, was born in the old Soviet Union, in Novosibirsk Oblast, an area of southwestern Siberia.
She made a name for herself working mostly in Japan, so a lot of songs are Japanese. Not too surprising that a lot of her songs are in Russian. English does turn up occasionally, but so does Latin.
Sadly she died of lung cancer at the age of 44 in 2015. I think she had a haunting voice, and I quite like her work. Most of it anyway.
This song is "One Way" by Origa from the 2013 album Amon Ra.
