VIS Limunada

VIS Limunada

Love towards 50s and 60s tunes, the twist and Latin swirls, retro dresses and oldie suits and fabulous hairstyles – that’s what you need for VIS Limunada (Vocal And Instrumental Ensemble Lemonade)! The group exists three years now, while the current line-up consist of: Miodrag Ninić (vocals and acoustic guitar), Vladimir Živković (solo guitar), Duška Rajković (bass and vocals), Borko Milojković (keyboards), Marija Kovačina (percussions and back vocals) and Stefan Pejatović (drums).

Not only do their concerts resemble the rock dance halls which we saw in some old, romantic films, but they revitalize and resonate the spirit of the carefree youths of the Nifty Fifties and Groovy Sixties (the older generations remember: listening to Radio Luxemburg, TV broadcasts of musical festivals and watching films like La Dolce Vita and Ljubav i moda (Love And Fashion)).

The guys and girls from VIS Limunada sing in several languages and are calling their musical preference The Old Wave: “That moment in time – the end of the 50s and the beginning of the 60s, that was marked by a magnificent combination of sophistication and indulgence, values and banalities, and maybe a naïve yet admirable belief in a better tomorrow. VIS Limunada, without nostalgia, but with passion, carries that energy, not letting it diminish even when lit by the contradictions that ensued.”

Their current hit single is named Rame uz rame (Shoulder To Shoulder), accompanied by a beautiful video bursting back the atmosphere from old dance-offs and musical TV shows. With this EP VIS Limunada announced their first studio album, due to be released this autumn. It will definitely be a great record (rockabilly, surf, mambo…), judging from the released singles – first we heard the song Ekspres kafa (Express Coffee), known for its performance by Đorđe Marjanović, and then Perfidija (Perfidy), from the repertoire of the unjustly forgotten Zvonimir Krkljuš.

On the Street Musicians Festival, beside the already mentioned songs, these contemporary jukebox kings will also perform Celentano’s immortal classics 24000 Baci and Impazzivo Per Te, the Cuban evergreen Quizás, Quizás, Quizás, Marjanović’s smash hit O, kakav mesec (Oh, What A Moon) and legendary songs of Buddy Holly, Neil Sedaka, The Beatles, The Ronettes, Johnny Kidd & The Pirates
