AFION

Afion is a Croatian-Macedonian band inspired by traditional music from Croatia, Bosnia, and Macedonia, which they play in their own and original interpretations and compositions, expressing the widest range of human experiences, from sadness and longing to happiness and exhilaration. At more than five hundred concerts in Croatia and around Europe, playing in the clubs as well as on big festival stages (Bingsjö, Shetland Islands Folk Festival, INmusic Festival, Adriatico Mediterraneo, Ohrid Balkan Square festival, Ex-Yu Rocks…), they gained a cult status and a large number of followers. Their live performances are probably best described in a few words as the “acoustic sound with the energy of the rock & roll band” (J. Bousfield, Rough Guide to Croatia), which makes the audience dance, laugh, and cry.
