Alizma from "America's Got Talent" is one of the top 40 acts on Season 4 of the NBC talent competition series. Alizma is a singing trio of identical triplets who all play the violin. They are from Las Vegas, Nevada. For the auditions, they performed "The Devil Went Down to Georgia." They have made it into the quarterfinals.
Identical triplets Aleksandra, Izabela and Monika Okapiec (23 years old) make up the musical group Alizma. The triplets were born in Poland and moved to the U.S. when they were teenagers. They were introduced to the world of music by their mother, who taught the girls songs before they could walk, leading to their first public performance at the age of three. By the time they were six, the young ladies were playing violin, and ten years later, at age 16, they were performing on Polish national television. However, the most influential time for the girls was when they were 15 and spent a year as exchange students in the United States. They were so enamored with America that they convinced their parents to let them go back and hone their musical skills. All three received full, four-year college scholarships, where they majored in violin performance and minored in voice and piano. "America's Got Talent" truly embodies the American dream for these Polish-born beauties.
