First reviews coming from the respectable Croatian critics, clearly shows that Lea chooses a right path to walk on with her being an author of the lyrics as well as the music:
"....maturity and conveniences of her first album is really shocking in the boundaries of Croatian showbiz..."
Darko Glavan, Jutarnji list
"EmociJA sounds like a mature pop album... and probably no one would mind for Lea to become one of our most famous singers...»
Aleksandar Dragaš , Jutarnji list
"...Lea Dekleva has velvet, suggestive voice who’s nostalgic note perfectly fits in eleven original compositions...» Denis Leskovar, Večernji list
- OKmusic
Debut album of Lea Dekleva, a Croatian singer and author. She has a velvet, suggestive voice who’s nostalgic voice note perfectly fits not only her original compositions, but also her cover version of "It's no Good".
Thanks a lot to OKmusic for being so kind to send me this nice CD! - www.zap.to/depechemodecovers

Bio
Lea was into the music form the day she was born. Going to music schools and playing her grandmother’s piano were two most favorable things in her childhood. When she was old enough, she started to go on tours as a back vocal for some very famous Croatian bands. Realizing she has much more to offer, she set on a piano one day and inspiration just flowed. Touched by people’s destinies and hearing different life stories, lyrics and music for her first album seamed to waited just to be placed on paper. EmociJA (Emotion) was born.
