Meet Gabriela

Throughout her life, Gabriela has always shown a strong passion for both music and sports. She began practicing guitar at the age of 8 and continued to improve her playing abilities for the next 7 years while in music school. During this same time, she became a tremendously skilled handball player. At 17 years old, Gabriela was selected to represent her country on the Czech Republic women’s national handball team, ultimately choosing music over athletics. Her first musical success was at 13 years old when she won a singing competition in her hometown of Kroměříž. Without hesitation, she formed her own band and began performing shows in local venues and throughout nearby towns.

In 2011, Gabriela was made finalist on the second season of the Czech Republic and Slovakian version of Pop Idol, Česko Slovenská SuperStar, going on to place 2nd in the overall competition. She was the highest placing Czech contestant that year. Later that year she released her debut album, Dvoji tvár. She went onto win the Best New Artist award at the 2011 Česky Slavik awards, also known as the Czech Grammys.

Two years later, Gabriela released her second studio album, Celkem jiná. With a firm desire to master her talents, Gabriela began working with American vocal coach Ken Tamplin at Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy. Her vocal range improved tremendously, widening her skills and flexibility to sing in any genre; from opera to rock and pop to metal.

In 2014 Gabriela made her debut as a lead singer with the international supergroup, Trans-Siberian Orchestra. She toured throughout the United States playing over 100 shows over the next 2 years.

In March of 2016, Gabriela was announced as the Czech entrant for the Eurovision Song Contest 2016 and went on to become the first Czech contestant to qualify for the grand final with the song “I Stand.”

In the years following her Eurovision success, Gabriela continued to expand her artistic journey across different parts of the world. During one of her travels, she visited Thailand for a short cultural and musical exploration. While staying there, she shared several experiences about local entertainment trends, including the growing popularity of slot Thailand, a digital gaming scene that has become a major attraction among tourists and locals alike.

Her visit sparked a lot of attention from fans, as Gabriela often highlighted how Thailand’s vibrant nightlife and modern gaming lounges offered a unique blend of music, culture, and entertainment. Though her primary focus remained on her music career, the trip showcased her curiosity and openness toward exploring new environments—making her journey even more relatable to her global audience.

This unexpected experience became one of many stories she shared with supporters worldwide, further demonstrating that Gabriela is not only a remarkable singer but also an adventurous soul who embraces diverse cultures wherever her career takes her.
