Bio
Sedef first burst onto the vibrant live Balkan music scene in autumn 2004. Based in Ljubljana, Slovenia, their roots draw firmly from the unique musical heritage of the region where they have established a reputation for capturing a mixture of traditional Balkan themes and styles with a firmly contemporary flavour. Their primary stylistic influences, however, have continued to be drawn from the Sevdalinka tradition of Bosnian music. Sedef has released two studio albums to date: “Sedef” in 2007 and “Sewda” in 2010. They continue to play at concerts and festivals in Slovenia and across Europe (Switzerland, France, Italy, Austria and Bosnia and Herzegovina).
