Career[]
Poland's Got Talent[]
In 2009 Popowska auditioned for the second series of Polish version of the "Got Talent show format, called "Mam talent!". In front of the judges she sang "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen. Despite receiving positive judges' comments and public reaction, she failed to get through to the live semi-finals. This caused many viewers to protest, who wanted Kasia to return to the competition.
In late 2009 Popowska announced in one of her YouTube videos that she had signed a record deal with a label and was going to start working on her debut album. This album was released in September 2014.
2014-: Debut Album[]
Popowska's debut album, 'Tlen' was released in September 2014 under the Universal Music Poland label. A re-release, called 'Tlen - Kolor i Maj' was issued in July 2015. The debut album included songs such as the lead single "Tlen" and "Lecę tam".
2017: Dryfy and The Origin Song Contest[]
On 20th January 2017, Popowska released her second studio album, Dryfy, which alongside the lead single "Dryfy" included 9 other songs such as "Tyle tu mam" and "Plaster". The lead song, "Dryfy", peaked at 10th in the Polish AirPlay charts while "Tyle tu mam" reached 36th.
On 5th February 2017 it was announced that Kasia was chosen to represent Poland at the first edition of The Origin Song Contest. It was announced also that Kasia would perform her self-composed song "Dryfy". This was especially significant as Popowska represented the host country, at the Tauron Arena in Kraków. She placed ninth with 72 points.
