Dušana Stefanović

Arriving to the Street Musicians Festival from Gornji Milanovac is Dušana Stefanović. Coming with her is her guitar, voice and love towards music – French chansons and songs belonging to the so called Ex-Yu rock. “That was the music of my parents, the music I grew up with. Songs of Jadranka Stojaković, and of newer artists as is Ana Stanić. I adored them and they led me to guitar playing. Now, when I am older, I am in constant search for new artists. I am amazed by the local band Ničim izazvan, and by foreign ones as well, Clapton, Sting and Arctic Monkeys”, explains Dušana.

One of the songs she will be performing on the Street Musicians Festival will be Je ne sais pas, one of the contemporary French chansons. “I performed this song on the Festival of French Chansons in Belgrade in 2013, and with her went on to the finals which were held in Niš”, said Dušana. “I cannot boast with experience of a real street musicians, because with me all is founded on playing in the park or in front of the dorm rooms, for an audience of friends in search of some good music.”

Dušana loves to read and is a great movie buff. “I adore films that lead me on journey of contemplation and have a good message. The film Into The Wild, directed by Sean Penn, which I recently watched, left a strong impression on me. Travels are also a great inspiration, but what inspires me the most are people who surround me, who are so different and who remind me every day on the good that has not yet completely vanished”, our new friend from Gornji Milanovac is quite the romantic.
