‘The artist of angelic voice, who heals the soul and opens the heart.’ – NEW YORK TIMES
Appearing at the prestigious Woodford Folk Festival along ith his world-renowned band, he expresses the pathos, melancholy, and yearning that are associated with Sevdalinka Music. Božo Vrećo previously performed Sold Out shows at Mona, Hobart as part of Ten Days on the Island and at the Theatre Royal, Castlemaine as part of Castlemaine State Festival.
With his eyeliner, long hair, beard, tattoos, and fabulous dresses, Božo Vrećo explores the masculine and feminine. In the intense melancholy of sevdalinka folk music, his emotive tenor adds a delicacy to the melancholy.
As a result of wars ravaging the Balkans during the 1990s, Sevdalinka has gained popularity there.
Vrećo first gained popularity through his band Halka and in 2018 he released his fifth album, Melek to global acclaim. His music has been used in documentaries, ballet and theatrical performances
