Singer, composer and bandleader Mirna Bogdanović blends jazz, electronics and pop into a distinctive sound world where expressive vocals meet acoustic and electronic textures. Based in Berlin, she has established herself as an inventive songwriter and performer, known for emotionally rich compositions and a fearless approach to sound. A DownBeat Student Award winner and two-time Deutscher Jazzpreis recipient, Bogdanović has released two critically acclaimed albums: Confrontation (2021), awarded Debut Album of the Year, and Awake (2024), awarded Album of the Year.

Alongside her own projects, she has collaborated with artists and ensembles across Europe, including the Swiss Jazz Orchestra, RTV Slovenia Big Band and Kalle Kalima, among many others.

With her band, Mirna continues to explore the space between song, improvisation and sonic experimentation. Her third studio album, Glimmerence, produced by Wanja Slavin, will be released on October 9, 2026.

*******************************

"...Bogdanovic offers an astounding vocal range and technique, which is completely innovative and combined with her marvelous compositions offers a deeply moving sonic experience, which stands out high above the standard recorded output..." – Adam Baruch

“Mirna Bogdanović ranks with her second album Awake among the most flexible and original Slovenian vocalists at the moment in terms of performance and composition.” - Nina Novak for Sigic

“A different, curious album, which demands our attention in its complexity but lets our mind escape in its luminous passages…” – Jazz Mania about “Awake”

 “Awake” is quite a statement from artist who defiantly has something to say and is not afraid to open her soul to those who dare to listen. Highly recommended. – Jazz in Europe

„Confrontation is a drug...a potent one, but one safe for frequent consumption.“ -All about jazz ****

It almost goes without saying that it is precisely this confrontational album that receives the German Jazz Prize for “Debut Album of the Year”. Because there really isn't a better debut than this, at least from a critic's perspective. – Musikreviews.de

"Not too many singers have the strength to make themselves independent from the vocal point of view in their own music. Mirna Bogdanović succeeds in squaring the circle by thinking like a pianist, guitarist, saxophonist or producer". - Wolf Kampmann
