Traditional Balkan sounds in a fiery dialogue with contemporary music
Bjonko Stosic represents a new style in the tradition of Balkan music, which moves it closer to contemporary music, driven by a flowing Macedonian improv style.
In 2017, Bjonko Stosic performed an energetic show at Northside Festival with hip-hop, fusion, and rock mixed with Balkan music. Additionally, he has been nominated for a Danish Music Award several times and won best Liveact World in 2015 / 16.
Bjonko Stosic was born and raised in Copenhagen but stems from a family of musicians from the city Bitola in Macedonia. His mentor was the Roma-Macedonian clarinet legend Chapche Naumovske, whose Balkan sound and phrases are typical for the Southern Macedonian region.
Bjonko Stosic performs in many constellations and collaborates with artists from plenty of genres, such as avant-garde, experimental fusion, hip-hop, Balkan, psychedelic rock, and more, yet remains grounded in local Macedonian and Balkan style. He tours festivals and venues all over the world, yet never stopped playing traditional, local weddings.
