I was born and raised in Croatia, on a small North Dalmatian island. Since I
can remember I listened to stories and folk songs, told and sang by old
folks. At a young age I got organ lessons by a nun and sung in church quire.
At 12 I got my first guitar and not much later I played my first gig and got
robbed of my first pay. As a HS junior in 1961. I formed one of the first
Rock&Roll band in former YU, called OKUD AC (Omladinsko kulturno
umjetnicko drustvo "August Cesarec", "Youth's culture art company..").
A year later I renamed it to OTOCANI (The Islanders). After going through
many changes as a musician and band leader, in 1972 I decided to
immigrate to New York. There I played with various local bands, The
ADRIATICS, KRISTALI. In 2001 I formed a trio 3 CORNERS. It was a great
little band with excellent potential but it lasted only 3 years. After that I
retired and started to record a CD of Croatian folk music arranged in
contemporary styles. After a initial success with this CD a year later I
recorded a second CD. Both CDs are selling well by all major retailers. Now
I am teaching music to my grand kids.
Thanks for visiting. God bless you and have fun.
