Raised in the small farming community of Canowindra in Australia’s New South Wales, amongst a minuscule population of 2381, Payten learned to play piano and guitar in her house — with Billy Joel on near-constant rotation. She left the rural life in her late-teens to pursue a medical education in Sydney alongside her musical career.

On their five studio albums, Manojlović is a complete songwriter. The band developed and changed their musical style over the years, having started as progressive rock band, then turning to rock-hard rock sound and ending up as Heavy Metal band. Although studio albums "Pakleni trio" ("Hell Trio") and "Kraljica smrti" ("Queen of Death") are considered truly Heavy Metal oriented, these are the albums for which Gordi are generally most known. The line-up for these two albums was: Zlatko Manojlović - guitar, vocal Slobodan Svrdlan - bass, backing vocals Čedomir Petrović - drums, backing vocals In 1979 the band won the first place at the international rock festival in Poznań.
