Grammy nomination!!

Posted on January 31, 2021

Thana Alexa’s recording ONA (meaning SHE in Croatian) was nominated in two categories for this years Grammy: Best Jazz Vocal Album and Best Jazz Solo by REGINA CARTER!

How amazing is that?!? I have never thought I would be a part of a Grammy nominated recording, and here it is! Thana came to my “Riva” album release at Carnegie Hall in 2017 and heard Vocal Group Rosa who I am a part of and who were performing as guests, and decided right there to hire us to sing on her album. Here is the whole story about Thana and Antonio, this wonderful jazz power couple and the writing and recording of ONA, with the story of our collaboration on page 3:

Go Thana!!!!

Update: Thana didn’t win this year, but I’m sure she will win many Grammies in the coming years!
