Biography
Karan was the lead singer of Croatian rock group Big Blue, before becoming a solo artist in 1997.
In 2000, he represented Croatia at the Eurovision Song Contest, after winning the Croatian pre-selection Dora. In the Eurovision Song Contest, he ended up in ninth place with his song "Kad zaspu anđeli" ("When Angels Fall Asleep").
In 2005 he was one of the judges in Hrvatski idol, the Croatian version of Pop Idol. Karan's song "Ružo moja bila" won the 2005 Split Festival song competition, as well as the 2005 Sunčane skale festival in Herceg Novi.
In summer 2007, deeply moved by the Kornati fire tragedy, in which 13 volunteer firemen perished, he composed in the spur of the moment the song "Ovo nije kraj" ("This Is Not the End") and gathered under the name Split Star a group of famous singers (Oliver Dragojević, Marko Perković Thompson, Tedi Spalato, Dražen Zečić, Alen Nižetić, Hari Rončević) from the Split area, who performed it with him in a music video, all of this in less than fifteen days.
