Mini bio
A childhood with music.
Monika grew up in Gargždai, Lithuania, and began playing piano as a child. LRT’s archive preserves her early television appearances as a schoolgirl, long before the Eurovision stage.
The 2015 breakthrough.
Her duet with Vaidas Baumila, “This Time”, took Lithuania to the Eurovision final in 2015. That year also brought her debut album Walk with Me and “Po dangum”. At the M.A.M.A. 2015 awards, she won Female Artist, Album and Song of the Year.
Finding her voice.
After her first Eurovision appearance, Monika moved to London to study music. In a 2023 interview, she said the contest had helped her believe in herself as a musician. She returned for Lithuania with “Stay”, co-written with Krists Indrišonoks, finishing 11th in the final.
A new chapter.
In 2026, Monika spoke about working between Lithuania and Los Angeles after securing a US talent visa. Her “Narcizai” video credits NVAK Collective as management, while the single’s release announcement describes it as a first step toward a new album.
