Songwriter, singer, multi-instrumentalist, travelling troubadour and one man band, record producer and founder of Nothing Concrete, Fergus is a diverse talent with many strings to his bow. Based in the South of France from where he runs his many projects, Fergus's songs and voice have been compared to The Waterboys, Dylan and Joe Strummer.
 
Years of travelling the world have helped to broaden his musical horizons and he is as comfortable playing balkan or south American rhythms and styles as the celtic and Americana roots music he grew up with. Working in formations from his traditional one man band "Bandolino" act through the ever changing line-up of Nothing Concrete, to producing the "humanitarium" albums that bring musicians from around the world together in Fergus's studio, he is constantly striving to create music that sounds real, communicates to the listener, and avoids cliché and overproduction.
 
With a UK based publishing deal and a distribution and licensing deal in the USA, exciting collaborations on the go, having worked with and supported such acts as Grammy award winner Joan Armatrading, Leo sayer and Rick Wakeman amongst others over the years, a new Humanitarium album, the forthcoming release of the debut Nothing Concrete album and an upcoming 2015 summer tour, Fergus is certainly keeping busy!
 
Fergus's extensive live experience has made him a captivating performer who relishes situations where he can really connect with his audience.Check the website to hear sound files, watch videos, find out about his other projects or to find out where he is playing next.

Genova je sedmeročlani čakovečko-varaždinski bend osnovan 2012. godine. Bend je u ovih pet godina rada odsvirao hrpu koncerata, od velikih do malih pozornica po cijeloj regiji. Svoju petu godišnjicu okrunili su albumom prvijencom naziva "Genova" pod okriljem diskografske kuće Aquarius records.

2018. godine potpisuju za Croatia records, te ostvaruju svoju prvu suradnju sa karizmatičnim slovenskim kantautorom Zoranom Predinom i vrsnim hrvatskim pijanistom Matijom Dedićem.

Postavu benda čine Hrvoje Krištofić i Gabriela Hrženjak kao vokali, Matija Turk za crno-bijelim tipkama, Dino Blažeka na bas gitari, gitaristi Alen Horvat i Bruno Damjan te Emil Kranjčić na bubnjevima.

The Ensamble Transatlántico de Folk Chileno is an independent ongoing project that gathers diverse musicians from Chile and abroad.

Its main objective is to create and perform music of Chilean (and other participating countries) inspiration, through an Orchestra formed by all kinds of acoustic instruments, from the classical and folk tradition. 

The original repertoire, written by members of the Ensemble, includes –in the Chilean side- styles as diverse as the cueca, huayno, "huachaca" (popular) jazz, Mapuche (natives) singing, and even the rhythms of African descent, a legacy which is largely unrecognized in Chile.

Being a non-traditional orchestra, the musicians avoid using sheet music in their concerts, so there is a constant visual communication with the audience, thereby generating a lively atmosphere where everyone is invited to participate, either dancing or singing.

So far more than 100 musicians have been part of the Ensemble, which has currently about 25 active musicians in Chile, located mainly in Valparaiso.

This project is currently in a process of national and international expansion, to form Ensembles in other regions of Chile, and in different continents, such as Europe, North America and Asia. 

In this way, we have a diverse group, multicultural and transversal, which seeks to represent the Chile of today, connecting it with the rest of the world, inviting everyone to rediscover it's own traditional music without prejudices or restrictions, building a global community who will share and support the different projects that might arise from this experience.

We are a cultural organisation that promotes various genres of performing arts: contemporary music, Japanese music and site-specific performances.

We organise several international events a year. These events include concerts, workshops, symposiums and exhibitions. We also provide artist residencies in our facility.

З 2019 триває другий сольний проєкт-експеримент Юрія Йосифовича СЕРЦЕ. НОВА АВТЕНТИКА. Його основою є маловідомі автентичні пісні з різних регіонів України. Йосифович досліджує, шукає і намагається передати їхню суть сучасному слухачеві. Засоби електронної музики допомагають концентрувати драматизм автентичної пісні і показувати, яка вона актуальна, сильна і близька.

Влітку 2020 вийшов альбом «СЕРЦЕ. НОВА АВТЕНТИКА».
