Milan Stanković A.K.A. SevdahBABY Today As Well As 6 Years Ago Behind SevdahBABY Alias Stands Only One Man. His Name Is Milan Stanković And He Is Most Joyful When He Mixes Different Musical Cultures In His Tunes. He Is Not Afraid Of Being Accused Of Heresy From Neither Audience For Example From The Mainstream Or Balkan Folk Music Fans On One Hand And Representatives Of The Urban Club Culture On The Other Hand. He Strongly Believes That Music Is Universal And The Balkan Sevdah Is Equal To American Blues Or Brazilian Tristessa. Two Years Ago He Gathered His Most Trusted And Talented Friends And Formed SevdahBABY LIVE. SevdahBABY Who Was Once A One-Man-Band Now Arouse To A Whole New Level.

This Is Why A Lot Of People Didn't Quite Understand Who SevdahBABY Might Be? Could It Be That Guy With A Funny Disco Folk Hat? Or Is It The Whole Band With Couple Of Beautiful Ladies Behind The Microphones? Are They From Serbia Or From Bosnia Because Of Sevdah ? Or From Croatia Because Of The Accent In The Song "3 Poljupca"?
