Zalagasper (stylised in all lowercase, formerly Zala Kralj & Gašper Šantl) is a Slovenian musical duo from Maribor consisting of vocalist Zala Kralj and multi-instrumentalist Gašper Šantl. The duo represented Slovenia[1][2][3] in the Eurovision Song Contest 2019 with the song "Sebi", finishing 15th[A] (out of 26 entrants) in the final.[4] The duo formed in 2018 after Kralj had begun performing vocals on some songs written and produced by Šantl. Initially, Kralj was only credited as a featured artist. They released the singles "Valovi", "Baloni", and "S teboi" in 2018, before releasing their debut extended play Štiri in February 2019.[5][6]
