Resa Anna is an Austrian singer songwriter and recording artist. Born in Vienna, she began her career as a solo artist in music as a teenager recording two singles which made Austrian radio and TV appearances in adverts. Her first career band emerged when she became lead singer of the rock band Distress, but despite helping the band achieve lyrical prowess, she was unable to truly hone her sound as an artist whilst focusing on the recovery from four years of horrifying bullying from her school years.

 

In 2013, Resa Anna moved to London and in 2016 had her first daughter who she nearly lost at a very young age. With this trauma settling into the distance, thanks to the encouragement of her partner, Resa Anna began recording several covers and making a return to writing again based off the difficult experiences of her past.

 

In 2019 she met the English producer and lead singer of Days In Wake Ollie Robinson and released her debut single “My New Life” which was recorded, mixed and mastered by Ollie at the world famous Abbey Road Studios. The song was a reflection of her emergence out of her difficult past into a new chapter of her life. Over the next two years, Ollie transformed Resa Anna’s sound from her singer songwriter roots into a modern alternative rock/ pop punk sound and in January 2020, work began on her debut album which was recorded at Soho Sonic Studios in London.

 

In October 2020, Resa Anna hit a major career mile stone by recording the vocals for her album at the legendary Metropolis Studios in London.

 

Writing my songs at Soho Sonic in Camden and then recording my vocals at Metropolis Studios was a lifelong dream come true. As when I was a young teenager my dream was to record my own songs in such iconic studios. It was an incredible feeling to know that my music idols have recorded their music in the same place and it was extremely inspiring. Working with Ollie was and still is the best experience I ever had as an artist and I will remember these days forever.

 

Resa Anna’s honesty and acceptance of the turbulence of life as well as the exciting mystery of the potential round the corner defines her music. Boasting beautiful melodies, driving riffs and souring guitar solos, her sound brings the nostalgia of 2016 pop punk into the territory of the modern alternative rock sound we all know and love today. Her songs are lyrically focused on loving yourself and those around you as well as emotive positivity to help her fans who may be struggling with similar traumatic past experiences.
