[[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. Recently they've done a number of evergreen covers and started showing a strong affinity for a more mediterranean sound. | [[Prifarski muzikanti]] have been playing traditional Slovene folk music since [[established::1987]].
