The Homegrowns - smokin' hot reggae & ska
Rok Zeleznik and his Homegrowns opened our concert season with a smoking hot hot show featuring a big phat horn section and endless energy. They keep the audience grooving until well past midnight. Hot hot hot show!! You shoulda been there.
Neighbor Appreciation Night
For all the food, love and support our neighbors have so generously provided since we arrived, we wanted to give back something. Since Slovenians are always up for a party, we decided to host the entire villages of Počakovo and Svibno for what we dubbed; "Neighbor Appreciation Night". Yes, it was a blast and went on until the wee hours of the morning. Not a bad time was had by all !
James Van Leewan - Barn Concert
Our dear friend James from Alberta Canada came to spend a few weeks at Pristava Počakovo and as a roaming troubadour, there is no way we could let him escape without a show of his rootsy soulful Canadian country-folk musical story-telling. So we setup a stage in the barn and invited our friends and neighbors to a wonderful evening of his deep baritone voice and brand new guitar. A real special treat.

Naughty Tris Music Video "Today's Girls" - Produced @ Pristava
Our own local boys-made-good.....listen once and it will stay in your head!
I walk around the village,I'm rushing to the girls,I'm singing to them,To win them.
But today's girls,Different than they used to be,Now you have to throw the tractor,not a singing voice.
Now I have a tractor,And I don't give a dam dam dam.It's big and beautiful,I'm the envy of the world.
Now the tractor's here,I won't give it to anybody,because all the girlswould be mine.
Now I've bought myself a tractor,I'm already moving around the village,I'm serious, I've got a girl,I'm running away from the others.
I'm going to the village,I'm rushing to the girl,I'm not singing to her,I'm sleeping in her room.

Every year, Joze Prah invites neighbors far and wide to a day celebrating the natural beauty, economic sustenance and biological miracle of Slovenia's rich forest heritage.

Nagajivi Tris
Happy feet and smiles all around!
A young musical group of three members, bound together by kinship and music.
It started in 2019, under the old name of Hrošči. Wedding and party events later led to the renaming of the group to Nagajivi Tris.
Now, as young budding music makers, they play together, have fun and love to enliven the evening and gatherings with good local and fun music.
The boys are above all lively and mischievous and as they say themselves:
As long as I'm alive I'll be mischievous!
