Vlado Kreslin: A cult figure in the Slovenian music scene this summer at Kamene Priče in Bale.

Vlado Kreslin is an iconic Slovenian musician who has shaped his country's music scene. He is one of the few musicians who successfully combines the folk tradition of his Prekmurje with the rock and roll spirit he grew up with.

The beginnings of a musical career

Kreslin began his musical journey in the 1970s, playing in the group Horizont. In the 1980s, Martin Krpan joined the group, which gained further prominence. In the 1990s, however, Kreslin's solo career really took off, and his lyrical and evocative songs found a home in the hearts of Slovenians.

In his vast repertoire, some songs stand out for their incredible beauty and deep emotional resonance. "Od vishine se zvrti," a moving song about the transient nature of life, and "Z Goričkega v Piran," an emotional journey connecting different parts of Slovenia, are just two of the many gems Kreslin has given to Slovenian music.

An intimate connection with the audience

The highlight of every Kreslin concert is the tangible bond between the artist and his audience. Kreslin's concerts are shared experiences, filled with singing, smiles and often tears. He has a way of making each concert intimate, as if he were singing just for you, telling you a story, sharing a piece of his soul.

In addition to his music, Kreslin is also known for his warm and simple personality. He can touch people not only with his music, but also with his genuine kindness and humility.
