With his new Marko Hatlak BAND project, accordionist Marko Hatlak dips a toe into pop, Latin, funk and rock waters. Drawing inspiration from Jamiroquai, Stevie Wonder, Michel Camilo, Prince and Jože Privšek, he translates it into an energetic, entertaining and rhythmic blend of youthful dance music. Hatlak has dabbled in various genres ever since the start of his performing career – from classical and contemporary to tango and world music. Now he is expanding his range even further. In the Marko Hatlak BAND project he is both accordionist and vocalist, as well as composer and lyricist. The music has a genuine band feel, with plenty of virtuoso passages and undeniable rhythm. To play it, Hatlak has put together a group of top musicians – on drums, percussion, bass, keyboards and violin – and allows himself to be inspired by their virtuoso playing and positive energy. The onstage chemistry between the performers is playful and occasionally humorous. The concert will also be an opportunity to hear songs from Hatlak’s new album Ko ni Noč in ni Dan. With the great guitarist Vlatko Stefanovski joining the band on stage as a special guest, an unforgettable musical experience is guaranteed. The group released their first album last autumn, on Dallas Records.
