Grše released three new singles ahead of the concert in Arena Zagreb

Grgo Šipek, known as Grše, has released three new singles—'Lollipop', 'Bella', and 'Rio'—ahead of his largest solo concert in Zagreb's Arena on October 24th. These songs form part of his latest musical project. Grše previously became the first Croatian artist to top the domestic Billboard chart three years ago, and his success has continued with each subsequent release. He performed across Croatia and the region this summer, regularly filling clubs and festival stages. The song 'Lollipop' was inspired by 2000s sounds and Timbaland, while 'Rio' blends Brazilian rhythms with his style, creating a fast-paced summer track. 'Bella' draws inspiration from tech house production. Grše expressed gratitude to his audience for their support, especially after being absent from the stage last year due to health reasons, and aimed to offer these songs as a gift for the summer. The concert will feature both new tracks and hits that have solidified his position at the top of Croatia's music scene.
