Anđa Marić is the singer of Kisha project, which has just released their debut album called The Summer (A nyar). “To me at the beginning Kisha was something very private.

The lyrics are deeply inspired by my grandma and her mother, my life during summers I spent in Hungary, at the same spot like Ady Endre (Hungarian poet) who’s lyrics I borrowed”, says Anđa.
