After leaving their mark on the opening night of the MENT Ljubljana 2018 festival, the post-punk-gospel connection is returning to Šiška, in a time when, due to events around the world, its righteous fury, unbowing political stance and call to rebellion are all the more on point – and needed. Don’t miss the return of one of the most thrilling bands of the 21st century!
Milko Lazar and Bojan Gorišek and their guests, the Zagreb Saxophone Quartet, will present a brand new programme, including two novelties premiered in Šiška. The programme will intertwine compositions by Milko Lazar and Philip Glass for two pianos and compositions for an unusual sextet of four saxophones and two pianos.

Noisy Dutch band The Homesick, whose catchy wall of pop-tinged sound blew us away at last year’s MENT Ljubljana, and whose praises have been sung by Drowned in Sound, Louder than War, The Quietus and Gigwise, will finally visit Šiška in November. They’ll be joined by garage punk/grunge trio 7AM, also faithful devotees of loudness.
In October, the acclaimed New York based Slovenian saxophonist and composer Igor Lumpert and his team of top-notch musicians – double bass player Masa Kamaguchi, saxophonist Greg Ward and drummer Jason Nazary – will present the Clean Feed Records release Eleven, a “darn good album of new jazz” (Odzven) according to foreign and Slovenian media.
