Already at the age of ten, Bianca Arndt sang in the school band of the boarding school Landschulheim Schloss Heessen, which she attended from 1987 to 1989. Afterwards she started ballet and jazz lessons in Bochum, trained with Ingrid Sostarich and Madame Jadwiga Antony in Luxembourg and became increasingly interested in theater. After graduating from school, she completed a three-year musical training course at the Stage School in Hamburg, for which she received a scholarship.
Bianca Arndt had her first important role as Hodel alongside Angèle Durand and Gunther Emmerlich in the musical Anatevka. She appeared alongside Helen Schneider at the Bad Hersfeld Festival, directed by Hans Gratzer, and in 2004 went to the Musicaltheater Basel, where she alternated in the leading roles of Lorraine and Adriana alongside Ethan Freeman and Florian Schneider in the German-language premiere of the musical Dracula.

From 2014 to 2017, she lived in in Nice, France, singing with her jazz/rhythm 'n blues trio Lady Killers in jazz and music clubs of the French Riviera, at festivals and at the Negresco Hotel.
