Zala Kralj & Gašper Šantl are a relatively new duo, who met each other on Instagram: when Zala’s videos were shared with Gašper, he knew he had found the right vocalist for his new song. 

The band's fourth single Sebi was presented on Evrovizijska Melodija 2019, and won them the ticket to represent Slovenia at the 2019 Eurovision Song Contest.

With their songs, they say that they hope to find people for whom the music means something.

Sebi ('Yourself')

Slovenian > English

When your mind is full of thoughts

you can listen to my heartbeat

When your burden is heavy

you can come to me

Ask what keeps me going forward

Is it distance and success

Like a leaf blows with the wind and resists it

I go with the flow and resist it

You can't always see the stars

just stay true to who you are

stop apologising to me

When there are tears in your eyes

let them be

When we have different wishes

I accept you and you accept me

Look at me, is it necessary, for everything to have a meaning

Eternity and this planet aren't friends

and I'm like a snowflake, that's waiting for the spring

You can't always see the stars

just stay true to who you are

stop apologising to me

You don't have to prove yourself to anyone

We all share the same fears, the same tears

You can't always see the stars

just stay true to who you are

stop apologising to me
