** Ana Popovic **
Movinmusic is pleased to announce that it is now working with Ana Popovic. We haven’t uploaded any webpages as of yet but here’s a short review to show you what to expect.
Jimi Hendrix is a woman - her name is Ana Popovic, August 2005
Blues sensation Charming Popovic won't be playing pop or traditional Balkan music, she'll give the audience some searing blues guitar, smooth jazzy licks, and a proof that the incarnation of Jimi Hendrix is a woman. Belgrade, Yugoslavia, may not be the first place you think of when it comes to blues music. Also a sexy young woman, looking like a European model may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you're picturing a guitar-slinging blues musician. However, if you put the two together you get the newest sensation in the world of blues music and that is Ana Popovic. – Jazz News
Ana will be touring the UK between the 21st September until the 1st October 2006. If you’re interested in booking this exciting artists please feel free to e-mail us at: [email protected]
