Anja Kotar is a Pop singer-songwriter, producer and classically trained pianist, writing signature sunshine-y Pop that blends relatable lyrics and timeless melodies in a pursuit of romanticizing life and the everyday experiences we encounter.

Anja was born and raised in Slovenia, then moved to California with her family 10 years ago. She has received her Master’s Degree in Music Production from Berklee College of Music.

Anja’s songs have received over 8 million streams across platforms and have been heard on Apple Music and VEVO playlists. She has been featured in magazines such as Earmilk, Wonderland, Notion, Paste, The Boyfriend Zine, The Line of Best Fit, The Music Connection, and CelebMix.Anja has over 22k loyal followers on Instagram and her 2021 single ‘Movie’ was used in a viral TikTok video with over 14 million views.

All through 2022, Anja has been creating a musical version of the calendar – releasing one song per month, named after that month. Tying in with her classical music background, each of the songs features an interpolation of a classical music piece (ex. ‘July’ is built around Habanera from Georges Bizet’s famed opera Carmen, while the main hook in ‘October’ features Johannes Brahms’ Hungarian Dance No. 5). Anja has been writing, recording and producing all of the songs from her bedroom in California.
