New York FM is delighted to welcome the beautifully produced, melodic, and mesmerizing new pop single “Shooting Star” from the ever-rising Swiss talent Tanja Carol. With dreamy, catchy hooks and radiant, emotional female vocals, this track shines brightly on our A-List Playlist—broadcast every few hours, day and night. Even better, it’s now featured as our special daily POP 2025 POWERPLAY at 4:30 PM Eastern USA time for the entire month!
Born in Switzerland in 1991, Tanja Carol grew up surrounded by music, performing from a young age at local city festivals with stunningly sung covers. Her passion never faded. While she went on to study history and German and now works as a freelance journalist, music remained the heartbeat of her life.
Tanja’s musical journey gained serious momentum when she connected with her current producer and manager. Together, they forged a dynamic creative partnership that allowed her to experiment freely with genres, shape her own vocal tracks, and blossom as a modern pop visionary.
Tanja Carol is not your typical singer-songwriter. Instead of strumming a guitar or sitting at the piano, she blends acoustic elements with digital innovation—crafting unique fusions that span indie pop, afrobeats, classical, rap, and more. True to her artist roots, she writes her own lyrics and performs each piece with heartfelt intensity.
From childhood stages to today’s airwaves, Tanja Carol continues to put her soul into every note—and “Shooting Star” proves she’s soaring higher than ever. ‘Shooting Star’ is taken off her latest EP “Love Is Dynamite”
