An eternal idealist and a dreamer, who is at the same time a brave visionary and a groundbreaker, original and distinctive, Josipa Lisac is a unique appearance of the musical and public scene in this part of the world. One who is capable, by provoking and teasing the public and herself, to create or to induce to creation. In one moment she is a playful child that learns and discovers and in the next one an experienced and formed artist with a clearly set standard. And her standard is the one of an undisputed quality. This is proven by the fact that Josipa's name can be today be found in a primary school music textbook, where she is mentioned in the part that explains the term of voice, along with Edith Piaf and Freddie Mercury.

Remaining through all this time a rebel, who with its very appearance defies the stereotypes and the uniformity of the world around us, while carefully and dedicatory working on her own inside world, Josipa continues to be as interesting and intriguing as ever. Especially to the young people, with whose energy, creativity, rebellious nature and creativeness she has a lot in common. Although she has always seen her musical collaborations as a chance for her own complementation, at the same time she often wanted to help the young and gifted musicians in their own amplification. The latest example of that sort of collaboration is the remake of "O jednoj mladosti" by the young Croatian group Flyer, in which Josipa appears as a guest.

In accordance with that was also Josipa's appearance in the show program during the contest for the Croatian song for the Children Eurovision contest of 2006, which not only witnessed the respect of the youngest for her music, but also at the same time it proved to be an ideal opportunity for Josipa to allow the child within herself to once again come to the surface, by singing with the former Croatian representatives the refrains of both some of hers and their own songs, together with the timeless evergreen "Proud Mary".

Like the truly and exceptionally rare artists, Josipa is capable of being different every time, while keeping her own quality.
