Barbari are a great young rock band from Istria, Croatia, that played two years ago at Festival Lent in Maribor - sadly, I missed them then in what happened to be one of the best performances of that year’s Festival Lent, as they told me many times after.
Fast forward to 2016, I was sure not to miss their next Maribor gig organised by agile concert promoter Miha "Stolp 3". Miha chose idyllic venue of Drava center outside of Maribor as the place for the open air concert which was a great choice (hope to see more summer gigs there!). Even a bit of summer rain didn’t spoil this energetic performance and all together great evening!
If I’m not mistaken, this was Barbari’s first gig with the new line-up, led by charismatic singer and band leader Barbara Munjas and a great gig it was! If they’ll be playing somewhere near you, be sure to check them out, it will be well worth it! ;)

Zdravo na zabavo: Severa in Gal Gjurin
Ruška koča, Pohorje (Slovenia), 29/05/2015
Free train raid from Maribor to Ruše, bus from Ruše uphill to Pohorje mountain, an hour of hiking through the woods, then a concert of a cool band in a mountain house - sounds like a great Friday afternoon / night, right?
Miki Solus
Train line Maribor - Ruše, Maribor (Slovenia), 28/11/2014
I don’t know of many bands that consists only of vocal, keyboards, cajon and bas and Miki Solus, young Croatian trio with great lyrics and cool music, are just that kind of a band. I also don’t know of many bands who performed in a train carriage (on a regular train line!), and Miki Solus did just that last Friday night!
Punčke
Sodni stolp, Maribor (Slovenia), 04/10/2014
After I missed what is now considered to be a legendary gig in Maribor when Punčke played Stolp 3 some time ago, I was sure not to miss this one. There were two main reasons for this: firstly, Punčke are great young female rock trio from Croatia that are brilliant for photographing live and secondly, the organiser of the concert, Miha Lovše, deserves every respect of concert lovers in Maribor and Slovenia.
