Grčić was born in
Split, although her father Božinko "Kićo" hails from
Dicmo and her mother Marija "Rina" is from
Tijarica.[4] She auditioned for the
second season of X Factor Adria in
Belgrade,
Serbia by singing "Ako izgubim te ja" (If I Lose You) by
Oliver Dragojević.[5] Advancing to the next round, the production decided to form a girl group with Grčić as a member.[6] She declined the offer and ended her participation at the show.[6] Starting 7 December 2019, Albina Grčić appeared as a contestant on the
third season of the reality talent show The Voice Hrvatska.[7] On the first show, Grčić sang
Laura Pausini's song "
En cambio no" (Instead, No).[8] Two judges,
Vanna and
Davor Gobac turned around with Grčić choosing Vanna as her coach.[9] On 11 January 2020, during the Knockout Stage, Grčić sang "
A Million Dreams" by
Pink and advanced to the Battle Round.[10] On 1 February 2020, in the Battle Round, Grčić's coach Vanna put her against Filip Rudan choosing that they both sing "
Lovely", originally by
Billie Eilish and
Khalid.[11] As a result, Vanna picked Rudan to continue his journey into the live shows.[12] Coach
Massimo Savić used his save on Grčić and she advanced into the first live episode as a member of his team.[13] On 8 February 2020, at the first live show, Grčić sang a rendition of
Zlatan Stipišić Gibonni's song "Nisi više moja bol" (You're No Longer My Pain).[14] In the semi-final, on 15 February 2020, Grčić performed
Coldplay's "
Fix You" and advanced to the final.[15] In the final, Grčić sang the songs "Suze nam stale na put" (Tears Got in Our Way) along with her coach Savić, "
Korake ti znam" (I Know Your Footsteps) by
Maya Sar and she re-sang her audition song "En cambio no".[16] She placed third overall behind winner Vinko Ćemeraš and runner-up Filip Rudan.[17]
Immediately after coming third on The Voice, Grčić was signed to a record deal with
Universal Music Croatia.[18] On 16 October 2020 her debut single, "Imuna na strah" (Immune to Fear), was released.[19] In December 2020, Grčić was announced as one of the 14 finalists for
Dora 2021, the national contest in Croatia to select the country's
Eurovision Song Contest 2021 entry.[20] She performed the song "
Tick-Tock" which was written by Branimir Mihaljević, Max Cinnamon and Tihana Buklijaš Bakić.[21] At Dora 2021, she won both the jury and televote with a total of 198 points and went to represent
Croatia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 in the
Netherlands.[22][23] Grčić performed in the first semi-final on 18 May 2021, but failed to qualify to the final, finishing 11th.[24] Despite failing to qualify, the song became a hit in Croatia.[25] On 25 February 2021, Grčić was nominated for Best New Artist at the 2021 edition of the
Porin Awards, which she won at the awards ceremony on 6 June 2021.[26][27]
On July 24 she informed her fans through
