With the new project Marko Hatlak BAND, Marko Hatlak is descending into pop, latin, funk and rock waters. He draws the inspiration from Jamiroquai, Stevie Wonder, Michael Camil, Prince and Jože Privšek, and translates it into energetic, fun, rhythmic, dance and youthful music. Virtuoso accordionist loves to indulge in a variety of music genres since the beginning of his career – from classical and contemporary music to tango, ethno, and many others. In the project Marko Hatlak BAND, Marko presents himself as an accordionist and vocalist, as well as the author of songs and lyrics. The music is bandy, virtuosic and distinctly rhythmic. For this project, Marko has gathered top musicians on drums, percussion, bass, keyboards and violin, that inspire him with their virtuosity and positive charge. The chemistry on the stage between the performers is playful and at times also humorous. The band released their debut album in the fall of 2018 (Dallas Records).
