My name is Drago and I like Irish music and in general, acoustic music with accordion, guitars, banjos and fiddles. I'm not looking for a band in a classical meaning, but rather some form of collaboration. For example, we can exchange home recorded tracks to play along, or jam occasionally, and finally perform on manny of Toronto's open mics.
I play acoustic guitar and kazoo (currently) but I use to play bass guitar in a band with official recording in Europe. I also had behind me a project with a band playing acoustic the all above mentioned instruments - we were reworking Irish music and music of Johnny Cash. If this sounds interesting, please, call me.

Misirlou
Misirlou Genre: Acoustic
"Misirlou" Greek: Μισιρλού Turkish: Mısırlı 'Egyptian' Arabic: مصر‎ Miṣr 'Egypt' is a folk song dating back to 1927, originally as a Greek rebetiko composition influenced by Middle Eastern music. The song then gained popularity among Middle Eastern audiences through Arabic (belly dancing), Jewish (klezmer), Armenian and Turkish versions. The song eventually gained worldwide popularity through Dick Dale's 1962 American surf rock version, which was responsible for popularizing the song in Western popular culture. Various versions have since been recorded, including other surf and rock versions by bands such as The Beach Boys and The Ventures as well as international orchestral easy listening (exotica) versions by musicians such as Martin Denny and Arthur Lyman. Dick Dale's surf rock version later gained renewed popularity through its use in the 1994 Quentin Tarantino film Pulp Fiction and again through its sampling in The Black Eyed Peas song "Pump It" and Mad Men: "The Jet Set"
