     Miroslav Evacic started playing guitar at the age of thirteen, completely on his own, with no tuthor. He intuitively found his own approach and expression which he developed trough his years of growing up.
    Along with his passion for guitar he also made enormous effort to find cimbule (hammered dulcimer) that used to be common instrument in folk-ensmbles in 19th and early 20th century, but in the 80-s was almost completely lost.
     His passion for music led him even further-he began playing diferent types of tamburas, pecussions, guitar tunes and also started intensively work as a sound engineer and producer in a professional studios. During that time he went deeper and realy touched the roots of his tradition and, spending lots of time in his own studio, experimenting with ideas, he found a way to express his vision and he came out with music he called Csardas Blues.
     He found that roots of the blues and his own traditional music are almost identical so Chardas Blues came out as something natural, simple, pure music without any makeovers and massive orchestrations. The world music movement was something quite unknown in Croatia so it took some time till a reponse from the world came. Then the Croatian medias started to aprechiate it, too. fROOTS magazine and BBC Radio made a great contribution in presenting it to the world, and everything went to follow...

     At this point Miroslav Evacic is eminent Croatian world music artist. He performs all over the world, solo or with Chardash Blues Band (guitar, bass and drums). At the special events the band enters a virtous cimbule (hammered dulcimer) player and vocalist Gordana Evacic who is also a winner of the national Status awawd for the best instrumentalist playing traditional instruments.
