Who's Ana Popovic ?
Never heard of her, until yesterday. Found her on YouTube, and I was really impressed.
Ana Popovic was born in 1976 in Eastern Europe, in Yugoslavia, and until 1998 she lived in Belgrad. In 1999 started to study musical theory in Netherlands and sign a contract with RUF Records in Germany.Her first record "Hush'!" appear in 2001, in 2002 Ana is part of ‘Jimi Hendrix Tribute tour’ with Walter Trout. She receives three nominations for the 2002 blues Awards in France: ‘Best Singer’, ‘Best Guitarist’ and Best Album’.
In 2003 Ana records her second album ‘Comfort to the Soul’. Ana also becomes the first European artist to perform at the prestigious WC Handy Awards in Memphis. In 2004 together with her band she wins the prestigious jazz award ‘Jazz a Juan-Revelation 2004’ in Juan Le Pins, France.
in 2006 Ana is invited for the legendary ‘Blues Cruise 2006’ - She’s the first European artist ever called upon to play this prestigious cruise with their original band. In February Ana is nominated as 'Blues Artist of the Year' by the readers of 'BluesWax Magazine'. In July Ana receives a 6-time nomination for the 'Living blues awards 2006'. She's selected in categories as; 'Best blues DVD of 2005', 'Best Live Performer', 'Best Female Blues Artist' and 'Most Outstanding Musician (Guitar)'.
In 2009 Ana shares the stage with BB King.
In December 2011 Ana receives a 3-time nomination for the 2012 Blues Music Awards in the USA; for Contemporary Blues Album (Unconditional), Contemporary Blues Female Artist and Best DVD (An Evening at Trasimeno Lake).
Well, this is just a part of her biography, but if you have doubts after listening her songs this is enough to complete your opinion
