Ana Popovic

“one helluva guitar player” – Bruce Springsteen Los Angeles-based, critically acclaimed guitarist and singer Ana Popovic released her latest album, Dance To The Rhythm, in 2025. Here, the album showcases a groundbreaking fusion of groove, blues, funk, and soul. Building on the success of her previous work, Dance To The Rhythm pushes boundaries. There, she seamlessly blends infectious dance grooves with raw blues guitar and powerful lyrics. The album weaves a rich tapestry of musical styles, reflecting Popovic’s masterful versatility. Ana says: “One of my biggest strengths on stage is my ability to make people dance. Music should take you to a place where you can let go, feel the groove, and move. You want music to grab you, to have a pocket that you can’t resist. Everything else revolves around it. Blues guitar has never really been part of dance music before, and in that way, it’s revolutionary. Guitar plays a central role in these tracks, breaking down the boundaries created by time, culture, and musical traditions. With this album, I’m pushing those boundaries.” For Ana, blues guitar is the foundation of everything in her music. Yet, she masterfully blends genres, effortlessly shifting from blues to dance, jam band, funk, pop, and even gospel. Thus, it’s all part of her evolving sound. A true pioneer, Ana combines her blues guitar roots with bold experimentation, redefining the intersection of blues and dance music. Her live performances are electrifying, blending fierce guitar work with irresistible rhythms that compel audiences to move. She’s received seven Blues Music Awards nominations, and her latest album, 2023’s Power, hit Number One on the Billboard Blues Chart. Additionally, Ana has shared stages with legends like B.B. King, Joe Bonamassa, Warren Haynes, Robert Plant, and Gary Clark Jr. Recommended for fans of Joe Bonamassa, Gary Clark Jr., Buddy Guy and Eric Gales.
