Artist
Haris Džinović (born 26 September 1951 in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Yugoslavia) is a Bosnian folk singer, composer, musician and songwriter. He begun his music career in 1975 in his hometown Sarajevo as a singer and composer of folk music when pop and evergreen music were more dominant in the Balkans, so he preferred to compose for other performers. Soon, fascinated by the Roma music, he founded the band "Sar e Roma" in 1981, with a famous group of Roma musicians. They played at numerous concerts throughout the world. Together with them, Haris Džinović recorded three albums between 1982-1986, which have been published as a CD compilation many years after their team-work. In 1989, he started again with folk music and made of specific sound and style for his songs, which became new urban songs accompanied with some kind of ethno sound. With his first album, Haris already had great success and almost every song became a hit. He has gained a large number of followers and music experts' awards for this. Encouraged with this success, in 1991 he recorded the second album, published for the same record company as the first album – "Diskoton", Sarajevo. At his performances he sings other performers' songs and does it in different foreign languages as well; English, Spanish, French, Russian, Greek,... and also plays many music instruments. While in Cannes, he got a proposal to make and sing the gipsy version of the famous song "My Way", composed many years ago by Claude Fra
