Join us for a one-off London concert showcasing the eternal appeal of Slovenian singer Vlado Kreslin – a poet, lyricist and performer much-loved beyond the borders of Slovenia.
Vlado Kreslin in one of the best-known Slovenian musician and songwriter, playing his own unique mix of Blues mixed with folk music. He has been referred to as an ‘ethno-revivalist’ due to his modernization of traditional songs, drawing on the rich traditions and ethnic heritage of his homeland and across the region. He is constantly performing worldwide and has opened twice for Bob Dylan and other world acts, such as R.E.M., the Dubliners, Allan Taylor and the Barcelona Gypsy and Klezmer Orchestra.
In addition to performing songs in his native Slovenian, Kreslin’s repertoire also includes English and Irish folksongs, sevdah from Bosnia, Italian ballads and folk songs in various dialects such as Istrian and Littoral.
