She later learned how to play the violin herself. Lanberry attended C.K. Norwid High School in Wyszków, and later moved to Warsaw, where she studied linguistics.[1]

In August 2016, she released the single "Piątek".[9] The song went on to become her first top ten hit in Poland, peaking at number-seven. She was later confirmed to be taking part in Krajowe Eliminacje 2017, the Polish national final to the Eurovision Song Contest 2017, with the song "Only Human", an English language version of "Piątek".[10] Eurovision rules state that no songs released prior to September 2016 may compete in the Eurovision Song Contest 2017, so Lanberry's participation raised controversy as "Piątek" had been released that August. Eventually, it was decided that she could still compete, and went on to place sixth in the competition.[11][12][13] She later rereleased Lanberry in June 2017, with five new tracks including "Piątek" and "Only Human".[14]
