Doors at 9:30pm.

Come celebrate Ederlezi with Orkestar Slivovica and Demiran Ćerimović. With Cathy Stoyko and her Romany dancers in the mix, this party promises to be the highlight of our Spring season.

Advance tickets are available at Bop City, the Waverley, by phone at 250-336-8322 and online at CumberlandVillageWorks.com.

Orkestar Slivovica is Vancouver’s home-grown Balkan Brass band, playing wedding and festive music from Serbia, Macedonia, and other distant and mysterious lands, where it is known as Trubachi and no such occasion is complete without it. The 8-12 piece brass ensemble plays and sings a diverse repertoire, from insanely fast dance tunes to heartwrenching songs, often in crooked rhythms and exotic scales.

Demiran Ćerimović is Romani living in the small town of Vranje in southern Serbia. He has played traditional Serbian brass music at many Romani and world music festivals in Serbia and beyond since 1997. Seven times he and his band have won the Best Brass Band prize at the Vlasinsko Leto summer festival in Surdulica, south Serbia, and three times (in 2002, 2006 and 2008) at the Guča Trumpet Festival in Guča, Serbia
