Life

Andrea Rischka (actually Ryschka, in Polish Rzyszka) comes from the town of Schelitz in Upper Silesia and grew up there with her grandparents. Since childhood, she has performed as a singer in front of audiences and took part in competitions. She stood on stage for the first time when she was five years old. This was followed by regular appearances at festivals and events of the German minority . After appearances with the singing group "Sternchen" in which she sang in German, she began to perform as a solo singer. She also learned to play various musical instruments, such as the trombone, tenor horn, trumpet and piano and attended the Opole Music School, where she learned classical singing. She studied singing at the jazz faculty of the State University of Applied Sciences in Nysa (Neisse). She also plays in a wind orchestra in the city of Zülz .

With her debut single "For all flowers, for all animals" she rose in 2011 a. a. into the charts of NDR1 and WDR4. At the cultural festival of the German minority in Poland in September 2012, she and Heino took to the stage in front of an audience of 6,000. Her third single "If you know how much I love you" is a German cover version of the song "Se bastasse una canzone" by Eros Ramazzotti and was released at the end of 2012. Rischka had to wait a year for approval to cover this song. She shot the accompanying music video in the castle park of the Upper Silesian town of Pokój ( Carlsruhe OS ).

She worked on her songs with producer Willy Klüter in Munich. She was discovered by the singer Toby (Tobias Thalhammer), who became aware of her in Silesia and made it possible for her to produce an album in Germany, as well as writing her lyrics. Until 2013 she worked on the release of her first album and on Polish versions of her songs. On August 9, 2013, her debut album "Wenn Du Wüsstest ..." was released in Germany on almara records.
