A.N.J.A.

Hailed by Chordblossom.com as “Belfast’s answer to Stevie Nicks”, singer A.N.J.A. recently cast “Digital Love Spells” over the listeners with the release of her debut EP.
Her dark, hypnotic sound is rooted in the 60’s acid trip era while drawing inspiration from the likes of PJ Harvey, The Velvet Underground and The Brian Jonestown Massacre.

The sometimes mysterious and cool, sometimes witchy themes of some of her songs are not just haunting and pictorial but also a more relevant than ever allegory for the female empowerment of the new decade.

A.N.J.A. is originally from Germany and moved to the UK in 2017. Starting out as a busker in the streets of Belfast in 2018, she has already come a long way.

Since her first ever song release “Black River Falls” last autumn, A.N.J.A. has played several live gigs on renowned stages of Northern Ireland’s capital already.
One of these shows was for the monthly GIFTED show last December in The Belfast Empire.
A.N.J.A. made her TV debut on NVTV in the same month and got her first radio spins on senders Blast106 and RevengeFM.

Recording and producing her songs herself, A.N.J.A. recorded her single “Men Will Die Tonight” during the Covid-19 lockdown. It debuted on Blast106 in June 2020, gained airplay on rte2FM’s show “The Alternative” and was added to numerous playlists inlcuding “You Haven’t Heard This Music”‘s podcast.
The song is part of her debut EP ‘Digital Love Spells’ which she released in August of the same year and which gained excellent reviews from Chordblossom, Jammerzine, Schwäbische.de and Bayview Sounds music blog.

With gritty, swaggering and attitude filled slices of psychedelic rock and beguiling folky chants, A.N.J.A. has undoubtedly arrived in the local music secene. Listen up Belfast and get ready for a ride in the desert with A.N.J.A.’s powerful, sultry vocals and badass attitude!
