Combining Eastern European folk tunes with jazz-influenced compositions, Eastern Blok’s Balkan fusion has successfully been packing venues throughout the country since the release of their debut album in 2005.
Goran Ivanovic, a guitar virtuoso noted for his lightning-fingered finesse and his complex interpretations of even the simplest melodies, has teamed up with Doug Rosenberg on saxophone, Matthew Ulery on bass, and Michael Caskey on drums. Together, they take a fluid, cohesive approach to their compositions and consistently create beautiful music without borders. The Los Angeles Times considers their music “relentlessly innovative work.” Time Out calls the Group “an agile Bela Fleck in Croatia, a simile not as crazy as you’d imagine—Ivanovic was born there.”
