Sara comes from a musical family in Ośnie Lubuskie and learned to play the piano at the age of 6. Over the last 4 years she’s been honing her vocal talents at the Słubice Municipal Cultural Centre. She is also the latest winner of The Voice Kids and follows in the footsteps of Roksana who won for Poland in 2018. Can she also replicate Roksana’s Junior Eurovision success?
