Margarita Pushkina was born on January 22, 1952, in Tbilisi, Georgia. Her father, Anatoly Ivanovitch Pushkin, was made a Hero of the Soviet Union for his service as a bomber pilot. Her sister Tamara Anatolyevna Pushkina, who holds a Ph.D. equivalent in archaeology, was a strong influence on her early life and development. Pushkina has an advanced education and has worked as a lecturer of English and Spanish. She is a very close friend of Alexander Gradsky. She was interested in rock music and bardic poetry from a young age. She wrote her first song lyric in 1970, Everyone Must Fish The Sun Out Of The Water Once for Alexander Kutikov. In 1976, Kutikov introduced Pushkina to the rock group Leap Summer, and this began her career of writing for rock musicians. Pushkina has created or headed several projects, but all under the aegis of a larger project named "Margenta" (this being Pushkina's nickname). A common theme of these projects is that the lyrics are written first and the music developed for the lyrics, rather than the other way round as is done by many musicians. The band Margenta was founded in 2003 with the support of many other creative musicians, singers, and other people. In 2006 Pushkina and others released the concept album On The Other Side Of The Dream. In 2007 Pushkina started her own musical project (under the aegis of the Margenta project) named "The Dynasty of the Adherents", which included participation from Arthur Berkut, Valery Kipelov, Sergey Mavrin, Sergey Terentyev, Sergey Skripnikov, and others. In 2009 the Margenta project released two albums: The Dynasty Of The Adherents: Savonarolas’s Children and Against Despair. On April 6, 2010, Pushkina released the single The Flower Of Marjoram which will be part of the forthcoming third album by The Dynasty of the Adherents.
