Dafnis Prietos Proverb Trio @ Narodni dom Maribor, Mali oder, Maribor (Slovenia), 18/01/2012

Perpetuum Jazzile
Dvorana Tabor, Maribor (Slovenia), 14/01/2012
Perpetuum Jazzile @ Dvorana Tabor, Maribor (Slovenia), 14/01/2012
Perpetuum Jazzile is a Slovenian "XL pop jazz a cappella group" who got really famous with their version of Toto's "Africa" (on this day, this YouTube video has over 12.370.000 views!) and who are, IMHO, destined for a great world success. Sold out gig in Maribor with live Blue-Ray recording is just a small step towards that.
