ANJA NISSEN
Anja Nissen grew up on a large rural estate at the foothills of the Blue Mountains, one hour outside of Sydney, NSW in Australia. Her youth was spent practicing singing and competing in a plethora of vocalist competitions, which she often won. The NSW Education Department selected her to join an elite group of students for their TALENT DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM (TDP).
Upon finishing High School, Anja decided to enter THE VOICE AUSTRALIA. She got through and was mentored by Will.I.Am of Black-Eyed Peas, who took her right through to becoming that season's WINNER (2014). UNIVERSAL soon released her related TV album and then single ‘I'm So Excited’ which featured Will.I.Am and Cody Wise. Thereafter Anja released more tracks including ‘Anyone Who Had a Heart', ‘Triumph’, ‘A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes’ (We Love Disney – compilation), and ‘Joy to the World’ (Spirit of Christmas – compilation).
Anja spent the next 2 years touring, recording, and developing her songwriting skills. As a dual citizen, she often travelled between Australia and Denmark. Anja's next big goal was to represent Denmark in the EUROVISION SONG CONTEST. This took two attempts. First in 2016 and then eventually winning the MELODI GRAND PRIX DENMARK in 2017. This led to her placing Top 20 in EUROVISION with her co-composed song, ‘Where I Am’. A 6 track EP was launched off the back of this international exposure and gained notoriety.
After exploiting the many opportunities that came her way in Europe, Anja moved to Los Angeles on a student visa to study music theory, composition, piano, and recording at MUSICIANS INSTITUTE Hollywood. This was an important period of growth for Anja both musically and in broadening her network. She made many creative connections with fellow songwriters and met with producers, agents, and managers.
Anja has now secured a US work visa and is officially based in LA. Her plan is to release, as an independent artist, the personally co-produced, 6 track EP; 'SAME ROOM'. Hopefully this will spark further interest in potential management companies, record labels, and publishers who wish to share in her vision for the next project, a solo album, which she has already composed. Big things are in store for this dynamic, young singer-songwriter. Watch her star rise!
