My new EP Kyiv – Praha, released at the end of March 2026, is an intimate confession of transformation. It captures the feeling of being a stranger who must rebuild an entire life from the grief of war tearing through your homeland, and the nostalgia that keeps pulling you back, even as you try to move forward.
It is the story of a woman searching for her anchor between two cities. Kyiv is the past and the roots. Prague is the present and the hope

What am I raising funds for?
The music is finished, but for its message to reach as many people as possible, it needs a visual form. I am currently working on a music video that directly touches on themes of emigration and the search for identity.
I am surrounded by an amazing team of friends and professionals who are helping me bring this production to life.
My name is Katya Gapochka. I am a singer and songwriter. Four years ago, I arrived in Prague with a single suitcase, a guitar, and my dog. I didn’t know anyone here. Every relationship, friendship, and job I have built here has existed for exactly four years—the same length of time as my new life in emigration.
As a musician and frontwoman of a band, I began performing benefit concerts in support of Ukraine in 2022. Over these four years, my life has completely transformed, and now the central question is: Who am I in this new world? And where is my home?
