BEB - BALKAN EXPRESS BOSTON

BEB (Balkan Express Boston) was formed in Nov 2007 by a group of enthusiasts from former Yugoslavia who are young at heart, though not necessarily young in years. The group members have beeen living in the Boston area between 10 and 20 years, which explains our name, Balkan Express Boston. But we are also known by other names. The group performed at Balkan Music Night for the first time in March of 2008, presenting sevdah music from Bosnia and Hercegovina under the name “Bascarsija” and 2009 and 2010 under the name BEB (Balkan Express Boston. Our group has also performed on many occasions under the name “Svilen Konac” (‘Silken Thread’).
