Markéta Irglová's musical career began with a chance meeting and a garden party. Born in 1988, the Czech musician and vocalist began playing piano and guitar at a young age and was only 13 when her parents met Glen Hansard, vocalist and guitarist for Irish rock band the Frames. At a party hosted by Irglová's parents, Hansard heard the young girl sing the Frames song "Star Star"; the next day, Irglová was performing the song with the band on-stage.
