− | [[Prifarski muzikanti]] have been playing traditional Slovene folk music since [[established::1987]]. The bend, founded in the village Fara pri Kostelu - hence the name, which literally means ''By-Fara musicians'' - continues the tradition of their fathers, who were also performing in those parts since the early decades of the 20th century. Primarely founded for performing alongside a folklore dance group, they soon started playing extensively around Slovenia and released their first album in 1993. At first playing renditions of traditional folk songs, they soon expanded their repertoire with their own songs. | + | [[Prifarski muzikanti]] have been playing traditional Slovene folk music since [[established::1987]].

Recently they've done a number of evergreen covers and started showing a strong affinity for a more mediterranean sound. |
Becoming increasingly popular, they started going outside the Slovene borders and performed in Denmark, Russia, Great Britain, Germany, Austria, Italy and even had USA tour in 2000. For the last four years, they've held annual concerts in [[Cankarjev dom, Cultural and Congress Centre|Cankarjev dom]], routinely filling the [[Gallus Hall]]. | Becoming increasingly popular, they started going outside the Slovene borders and performed in Denmark, Russia, Great Britain, Germany, Austria, Italy and even had USA tour in 2000.

The song with which they won their latest first place at the Festival narečne popevke.
The band's line-up has somewhat changed and evolved in the last two decades, much of the changes happening along the family lines. Currently, they have Mitja Ferenc on berda (an instrument similiar to double bass), Valentin Južnič on bisernica (an instrument similiar to mandolina), Martin Marinč and Toni Obranovič on accordion, Uroš Obranovič on bugarija (an instrument similiar to chello), Jernej Pečak on violin and Brane Počkar on brač (an instrument similiar to a guitar). This peculiar mix of tambura instrumentation and accordians, combined with all of them being vocalists, gives them a very distinctive sound.
