Małgorzata Jamroży (Polish pronunciation: [mawɡɔˈʐata jamˈrɔʐɨ]; born 30 June 1991), known professionally as Margaret, is a Polish singer-songwriter. Before her mainstream debut, she ventured into various music projects such as being a member of underground bands and recording songs for television commercials. She also ran a fashion blog and during this period she was discovered by her manager and later signed by her record label Extensive Music.

Margaret's breakthrough came in 2013 after the release of her debut single, "Thank You Very Much", which was later included on her debut EP All I Need. The song charted in the top fifty in Austria, Germany and Italy. Margaret's debut studio album, Add the Blonde, was released in 2014. It peaked at number eight in Poland and was certified platinum by the Polish Society of the Phonographic Industry (ZPAV). The album contained three singles: "Wasted", "Start a Fire" and "Heartbeat", which reached number six, ten and eleven in Poland, respectively. Its 2016 reissue produced Margaret's first top five single in Poland, "Cool Me Down". The song was also a moderate commercial success in Romania and Sweden, charting within the top thirty and top forty, respectively. "Cool Me Down" was certified double platinum in Poland and gold in Sweden. In 2015, Margaret recorded a collaborative jazz album with Matt Dusk titled Just the Two of Us, which received a platinum certification from ZPAV.
