DESCRIPTION:

Ana Popovic is realizing her dreams. Her journey has been a long one; a quest to find her own voice and the courage to express thoughts and feelings about subjects, both personal and political, that are very close to her heart. Originally hailing from the war-torn town of Belgrade in the former Yugoslavia, the love of music was instilled in Ana at an early age by her father through exposure to nightly jam sessions and his impressive record collection. At the age of 15, she picked up her father’s guitar, pointing her down a career path in music that she could ultimately not deny.

By her early 20’s, Ana had already formed her first band Hush, playing hundreds of gigs and making regular appearances on Yugoslavian television. She eventually chose to leave her home country and its oppressive political climate to pursue an education at the Utrecht Academy studying music in the Netherlands. One year later Ana landed a record deal with Ruf Records in Germany. After years of steady touring in Europe and four critically acclaimed cds under her belt, including a W.C. Handy nomination for “Best New Artist Debut,” Ana has finally set her sights on the U.S.

Produced by Grammy Award winning producer John Porter (Roxy Music, The Smiths, Los Lonely Boys, Bonnie Raitt, Ryan Adams, Keb’ Mo’, Jimmy Smith, The Go-Go’s, Buddy Guy), “Still Making History” spotlights Ana’s growth and maturity as an artist, emphasizing her songwriting skills alongside her sensual vocals and masterful guitar. The end result is a deeply personal and inspirational work by a courageous artist, possessed with both a passion and a vision to share music that’s “Still Making History.”
