Kafana Balkan

SEE EVENT DETAILS
KAFANA BALKAN with INSPECTOR GADJE BALKAN BRASS BAND, Zedan & Osman, Alia Saeed

Opa! Kafana Balkan will be back Saturday October 18th at the Rickshaw Stop. The dance floor will be hopping!

INSPECTOR GADJE brings a big sound to the beautiful and bumpin' brass band music of the Balkans. With 14 musicians sharing the stage, Inspector Gadje is an acoustic dance machine that makes the party move! A "... RIP ROARING MAD BALKAN BRASS BEDLAM" (KPFA'S Stephen Kent, "Music of the World") and an "instant party atmosphere" (The SF Chronicle).

Kafana Balkan was the first ongoing Balkan dance party in San Francisco and is the only one of its kind organized by DJ Zeljko Petkovic in the Bay Area. Zeljko hails from Serbia by way of Frankfurt, and, lucky for us, he now calls San Francisco home. DJ Zeljko has discriminating taste, a seemingly endless collection of great Balkan albums, and love and joy for his music, a crowd-pleasing, danceable Balkan brass sound. Zeljko promotes Balkan music and culture by producing Kafana Balkan roughly four times a year. Since February 2015, he's joined by Marco Peris Coppola, Creative Co Strategist and Co Booker, who is helping Kafana Balkan grow.

There will be Rakija - delectible Serbian plum brandy. Warning: :drink at your own risk:
