Neja biography

Despite the exotic name Neja, Agnese Cacciola was born 15th August 1972, in Turin under the Leo Zodiac sign. Her musical past is a long road of Jazz, Gospel and Celtic but she arises to success thanks to Dance Music.

Songs like Restless and Shock made Neja one of the most famous and danced artist not only in Italy but also Europe riding the top of both the sales and the Dance charts. Neja's highlight as an artist is due to the single The Game (also the title of her debut album), with which she won the 1999 "Disco per L'estate" and makes her present in every Festivalbar '99 show.

Neja, author of the 10 tracks included in the album, from the Dance beats of Restless and Shock, easily slides from pop dance tracks like The Game all the way to pure pop like Fairytale or Mum's Day. The entire album, extremely present in the Italian and Foreign market, lyrically touched the artist's relationship with love, hope, her parents and God. It also contained a CD-ROM that includes an interview, photos and the video clips that support her hits.

In late January, occasionally, Neja along with her producer Alex Bagnoli put together a dance mix of Fairytale that immediately smashes through the radio and sales net thanks to the powerful combination of the latin and dance flavour that rides the musical european trends. One more summer and Neja strikes again. This time the new hit annouces the second upcoming album and the single for this summer 2000 is Singing Nanana. A latin based track published in different versions: a Dance mix, Club mix, the Original and the Cuban cut, recorded totally live with bongos and trumpets.

2005 : Neja released a new single called Who's Gonna Be, not exactly eurodance unfortunately. From 2003 to 2005, Neja performed for her devoted fans in Italy and other parts of Europe, as well as in India as a representative of an Italian clothing company

2006 : Neja's new single was entitled Miracleland.

2007 : She started working with producer Ivan Russo, who scored a smash hit with Ilona Mitrecey. In April, the online release of a remix of the famous Madonna tune Like A Prayer was planned. This project started from the idea of the French DJ Benjamin Braxston.

Her new single Catwalk had some success in Italy and France.

2008 : Neja's new album Acousticlub was released on 30th May. It included 8 covers chosen among the songs that she used to like when she was a teenager, plus The game and Destiny. All songs were rearranged in a jazzy style, which should not really please all dance fans... The first single is Sweet Dreams, cover of the famous Eurythmics hit.

From June 23rd and during all Summer, Neja co-presented a new radio show called Estatissima.

2009 : Neja's new single was entitled Loving You. The album was produced in cooperation with Peter Damir and Gianluca Argante, two DJs from Turin and started its promotion in England.

2010 : Neja was featured on Lanfranchi and Farina's new single, entitled Sorry..

2012 : her new single was entitled Sun Has Come Again

2013 : she published an acoustic album entitled Neja vu, with 8 cover hits and 4 new songs.

2015 : she released a 2015 version of her hit Restless

2016 : she contributed to Chunkybiz' single All I Want Is You and to Samuele Sartini & Alex Kenji's single Burn. In December, she recorded a new song inspired from "Pater Noster" prayer with Paolo Conti

2017 : Neja released a new single entitled Brother. She did vocals on Deeper Take Me To The Club, then on their next single If It's Love

2018 : Neja was featured by The Encore on their single No More Chance, and released a best of album as CD and vinyl under label SAIFAM.

2019 : Neja's new single was entitled I'm Calling You. It was recorded with Massimo Zanotti.

2021 : she was featured on Watt & Jack's single I'm Alive, than recorded a duet with Carl Fanini (Clubhouse, East Side Beat), a cover of the hit Smalltown Boy.

2022 : her next single Dance All Night was released on June 24th.
