Career

Zoldan is an operatic mezzo-soprano singer.[2] She has combined her musical activities in the most diverse genres, singing in several operas in France for many years[3] and simultaneously working with some metal bands and other personal projects. Two of her most notable appearances were in Trail of Tears's Existentia (2007) and Turisas's Battle Metal (2004), where she was the main female vocalist.

On 8 September 2016, Norwegian gothic metal band Sirenia announced Zoldan as their new official vocalist, replacing Spanish singer Ailyn Giménez.
