June 13, 2019 - The music program of the second edition of the Herceg Novi Festival of Independent Art MORZ rounds up trance-blues attraction by Frank Magnolia and Split singer Tomislav Gracin. All the MORZ programs will be held at the Amphitheater of Herceg Novi Theater, and as already announced for the musical part of this event, the Baobab band will open on Friday, 21 June.
Frank Magnolia, or Vukša Veličković, on Monday, 22 June, brings hypnotic guitar rhythms, and her trance blues, as dark as exciting and exciting, leads us to the vast expanses of the North American South. He is the winner of the Cantorum of the Canton of Rockstar. This year he released an excellent debut album - 'Almost There,' with songs that could easily win the listeners and far beyond the Balkans.
The third night of the festival, on Sunday, 23 June, will welcome Tomislav Gracin, an unmatched songwriter on a well-developed canzone scene of the region. Gracin published his second album "Two," which was shot in Split three months ago so that his MORZ performance is also one of the first real presentations of this achievement. His music is intimate, personal, and meets both preferences of Arsen Dedić and Radiohead listeners.
By the concept initiated last year and on the second edition of the MORZ, all the festival evenings will begin with film projection, in cooperation with MORZ and Montenegrin Cinematheque.
During the festival, the audience will have the chance to see an exhibition of some of the most exciting young illustrators who live and work in the area of former Yugoslavia. In the coming days, MORZ will also promote the names of visual artists whose works will be part of the setting to be exhibited in the public space around the Amphitheater of Herceg Novi Theater.
The author of the visual identity of the festival is the young Montenegrin illustrator, Vuk Bojanić.
