The Yugoslavian-born, Netherlands-based Popović, was first introduced to the blues through her father's extensive record collection and sessions hosted at the family home. Popović founded her first serious band at age nineteen, and within a year, she was playing outside of Yugoslavia and opening shows for American blues icons like Junior Wells. By 1998, her band was doing 100 shows annually and appearing regularly on Yugoslavian television. Her debut CD, Hometown, provided a first glimpse of her talents as a singer and guitarist.In 1999, Popović relocated to the Netherlands to study jazz guitar. She quickly became a fixture on the Dutch blues scene and soon ventured into neighboring Germany. With Comfort to the Soul (2003), Popović delivered another diverse package of blues, rock, soul and jazz, earning her comparisons to artists such as Susan Tedeschi, Sue Foley, and Bonnie Raitt.
Her meteoric career shows no signs of slowing down. With Blind For Love, Ana will continue to march forward and carry on the tradition of her father, her roots, and her true love of the music she was destined to play.
