Bosnia-Herzegovina, 2008, sevdalinka / Balkan folk

Amira Medunjanin & Merima Ključo – Zumra: Very much a no-frills album, just one woman’s haunting vocals and another woman’s evocative accordion. At times quite melodic, at other times floating about into drone territory, a terrifying glimpse into either the aftermath of heartbreak or the smoking remains of a battlefield.
