Early life

Pia Maria is from the Austrian region of Tyrol. She is a trained make-up artist and works at the Tyrolean State Theatre in Innsbruck. She has been writing her own songs since she was 16.[2][3]

Career

Pia Maria represented Austria at the Eurovision Song Contest 2022 in Turin, Italy, performing the song "Halo" by DJ Lumix.[4]

During the promotional pre-parties for Eurovision, Pia Maria received criticism for vocal issues during the live performances of "Halo". It was later confirmed that her vocal struggles were due to long COVID, as well as the vocalist's inexperience with in-ear monitors. The Austrian delegation hired a vocal coach to work with Pia Maria to prepare for the contest, and the backing track for "Halo" was transposed into a lower key for future pre-parties.[5]
