Life and career

Early career

Nykiel was born on 8 February 1995 in Mrągowo and was raised in nearby Piecki. She first began pursuing a music career when she took part in the Sing Poetry event in Olsztyn in 2012.[1]

2013–present: The Voice of Poland and Lupus Electro

In 2013, at the age of eighteen, Nykiel began taking part in the second season of The Voice of Poland. She was a member of Team Patrycja Markowska. Nykiel went on to finish in fourth place, and was later signed to Universal Music Polska.[2] In 2014, she released her debut single "Wilk" (Wolf), which had little chart success.

The following year Nykiel released a second single "Bądź duży" (Be big) which went on to become a top ten hit in Poland. The song's video won the award for Best Video at the 2015 Eska Music Awards and brought her a nomination for Best Polish Act at the 2015 MTV Europe Music Awards.[4]
