Born in Galliate, Novara, after some experiences as a chorist in 1984 Biolcati won the Castrocaro Music Festival, which got her the chance to compete at the 35th edition of the Sanremo Music Festival, where she placed third in the "Newcomers" section with the song "Innamoratevi come me". The same year, she also competed at the World Popular Song Festival in Tokyo, with the song "C’è ancora cielo".
