Balkan party music in Seattle

Kher kereste

Posted on Aug 28, 2018

A haunting song from the southern Balkans, recorded and, I believe, written by Kenan Asan in 1989 or 1990. We play it as a lesnoto.

From house to house, grass grows
[i.e. no one walks between them, the people are gone]
In my head, a fire burns.
