Dina Rizvic

DINA is a versatile multi-instrumentalist, composer, producer, and chart-topping singer-songwriter. Classically trained in piano and percussion, she gained early recognition in Croatia, winning multiple competitions before apprenticing under jazz vibraphonist Bosko Petrovic. She later earned a scholarship to Berklee College of Music, graduating summa cum laude.

Her compositions have received international acclaim, with two nominations at the 2022 Hollywood Music in Media Awards, alongside artists like Billie Eilish and Hans Zimmer. She won the “New/Emerging Composer” award for Imaginarium, performed by members of the Croatian Symphony Orchestra. Refusing to be confined to a single genre, her original songs Moment, Home, Last Minute and Shadow in the Night received nominations at the Hollywood Independent Music Awards across jazz, acoustic/folk, sci-fi/fantasy and Latin pop/rock categories.

Signed to Croatia Records since 16, her 2023 album Iz Sjene produced three No. 1 singles on Croatian national radio. She also champions female representation in music, co-creating Miracles, the first jazz orchestra album in the Balkans fully composed, arranged, and performed by women.

Now based in London, her English EP Waves was featured on BBC Radio, and she is currently working on a new album.
