Artist
Primož Vidovič is a chansonnier and philosopher who holds up a distorted mirror to modernity in witty satires, poignant ballads and vivid narratives. Through thought-provoking, even provocative lyrics, he reminds us of the tragicomic nature of human existence and collects stories of people trapped in a contradictory world with noble humour and a wonderful world-pain. It brings together music from different parts of the world, in a jazz eclecticism, but with a classical tradition, seeking the new in the old and dusty. In addition to his original music, he is also active as an interpreter of jazz, Slovenian and world evergreen songs.

Festival
A result of the merger between two events, the promising Trbovlje-based Šklabfest and Ajdovščina-based Njoki Summer Festival, Punk Rock Holiday has evolved into the biggest punk-rock festival in the region. Tolmin’s Sotočje creates an idyllic setting for the festival that traces its beginnings to 2011. Running over the course of four early-August days, the festival features some of the most prominent international punk-rock acts.
