Divanhana

Divanhana like to think outside the box and have worked with the popular Turkish singer and actress Suzan Kardeş in recent years, among others. One of the highlights of her career is an artistic cooperation with the US musical star Bradley Dean. So that's how Sevdalinka got to Broadway for the first time!

Divanhana even used the enforced Corona isolation for a new project: The "Quarantine EP" was largely recorded on the smartphones of the individual band members, while the musicians were scattered over six different cities in their homeland. Thus, Divanhana have made the best of the pandemic situation with limited resources.

"Zavrzlama" was recorded in Slovenia in February 2020, shortly before the first lockdown. The album was then mixed in Sarajevo in June 2021. The hauntingly reduced album opener "Na Kuslatu Se Mahrama Vihori" shows Šejla Grgić at the height of her skills and skilfully keeps the balance between intimacy and latent threat.
