Maria attended a comprehensive school in Lviv, and studied music at home under the guidance of her father, who was categorically against state music schools. He believed that the framework set by the program limited the creativity of children.

From the age of 5, the girl learned to play the piano, and in her teens she mastered the guitar on her own. In high school, Varum was a member of the school troupe and even went on tour. She not only played roles in various performances, but also sang Ukrainian folk songs with her own guitar accompaniment.

The scene attracted the girl so much that after receiving a certificate, she went to Moscow and submitted documents to the famous Shchukin Theater School. But the applicant failed the exams, so she had to return to her parents and start working part-time in her father's studio, performing backing vocals. Also, the girl worked for several years as a backing singer with pop stars.

In 1989, the aspiring singer recorded 2 solo songs written by her father. They were Midnight Cowboy and Hello and Goodbye. The first of them becomes an all-Union hit. It was with him that Varum made her debut as a singer in the television program "Morning Star". Then she takes the pseudonym Angelica for herself, changing the affectionate domestic treatment of her grandmother, who called her Angel.

After 2 years, Angelica Varum's first full-length album, Good Bye, My Boy, was released and immediately became popular. The title song, which tells about the parting of young lovers because of the fall of the USSR and repeats the aphorism “Goodbye, my boy” as a refrain, became the anthem of that time for the singer's peers.

In 1992, the artist received an invitation for cooperation from the Prima Donna of the Russian stage. Experience in the "Theater of Alla Pugacheva" helped Varum to further rise to a new level in his own work.

The second album "La-la-fa" in 1993 strengthened Varum's popularity. The song "The Artist Who Draws the Rain" became a famous hit, the song "Town" for a long time was the soundtrack to the popular humorous show of the same name, and "La-la-fa" became a nominee for the "Song of the Year" award.

The next disc of 1995 "Autumn Jazz" received the "Ovation" award as the best album, the song of the same name became the best video clip, and Angelica Varum herself was named the singer of the year. Subsequent records "Two minutes from love" and "Winter cherry" strengthened their popularity among fans, but did not bring new awards.

For a couple of years Varum takes a break from his musical career and tries himself as an actress. She played the role of Ukrainian Katya in the play “The Pose of the Emigrant” by director Leonid Trushkin based on the play “Banker” by Hanna Slutsky. For her excellent performance in this production, Angelica received the Seagull theatrical prize. Around the same time, she played one of the first roles in the movie "The Sky in Diamonds".

In 1999 a new disc "Only she" was released, the creative duet of Angelica Varum and Leonid Agutin began. Together, the musicians record the songs "Queen", "Everything is in your hands", "If you ever forgive me" and others. The result is the popular disc "Office Romance", released in 2000. During this period of his creative biography, music videos for the compositions of the duet and solo songs of Varum were directed by Fyodor Bondarchuk.

The joint performance of Varum and Agutin will be repeated on many more discs, for example, "Stop, Curiosity" in 2002, "Two Roads, Two Ways" in 2007. And in the song "Be a part of yours" Vladimir Presnyakov Jr. and his wife Natalya Podolskaya joined the Varum-Agutin duet. The duet of Angelica Varum and Leonid Agutin has become a laureate of the Golden Gramophone award 6 times.

In 2004 Angelica collaborates with the popular VIA "Cream". Together with them Varum records a song and a music video "The Best". The same year Varum and Agutin spend on tour: the duo is on tour with performances in Germany, the USA, Israel and the post-Soviet space.

Angelica Varum regularly releases solo discs. In 2007, a double album "Music" was released, in 2009 - "If he leaves." In 2011, the star received the honorary title "Honored Artist of the Russian Federation" for her services in the field of art.

In January 2013 Angelica Varum and Leonid Agutin leave for the concert tour "How not to think about you?" for the CIS countries, Russia, the USA and Canada. Then the singer plunges into work on the album "Crazy", published in 2013. Together with the release of the disc, Varum presents 2 videos for the songs "Crazy" and "I am always with you."

In 2016 Angelica Varum presented a new album called "The Woman Walked". The singer independently wrote the lyrics for the new disc, and the composer Igor Krutoy was the author of the music. The album consists of 12 lyrical musical compositions that reveal the fragile spiritual world of a contemporary.

Fans call the disc a "creative confession" of the singer, and the video for the song "Late Love" is compared with shots from the movie "Three Poplars on Plyushchikha". The premiere of the album, which included the songs "Voice", "My Love", "Your Light", took place within the framework of the "New Wave - 2016" competition at Igor Krutoy's recital. A year later, the artist's video library was replenished with two new works for the songs "Mama" and "Girls Can Do". The performer's videography includes dozens of music videos.

In April 2017, the duet Varum and Agutin was accused of delaying the start of the concert in Ulyanovsk for an hour by Angelica, and Leonid went on stage drunk. The musicians commented on this rumor, explaining that the singer had a cold, it was necessary to change the program, which is why there was a delay. And Leonid, as a loving husband, was worried about his wife, and therefore behaved somewhat nervous at the concert.

Due to the notorious events in Kemerovo, associated with a fire in the Zimnyaya Vishnya shopping and entertainment center, Angelica Varum stopped performing the song of the same name at concerts. According to Leonid Agutin, the track is unlikely to return to the artist's repertoire, but he hopes that the musical composition will soon cease to be associated with tragedy.

The first husband of the famous singer was her former classmate, and later an illuminator at concerts, Maxim Nikitin. Parents were against this marriage of their daughter, together with Maria they left for Moscow. But the chosen one Varum followed her. After Maxim served in the army, they got married. This marriage lasted 8 years, but the spouses never had children - Angelica was passionate about her musical career.

In 1997, changes took place in the singer's personal life. Varum met Leonid Agutin, who became her partner on stage. The creative union eventually grew into a full-fledged relationship, and Leonid became the star's life companion. In 1999, Angelica gave birth to a child from Agutin, and the musicians decided to formalize the relationship. They officially became spouses in 2000, a year after the birth of their daughter Elizabeth. The artists played the wedding in Venice.
