Krunoslav “Kruno” Spisic began his musical training at the age of 10. His first instrument was of Eastern European decent called the Tambura, a four-tone mandolin from the Balkans. Growing up in a Croatian household, he was exposed to many forms of Tambura music from Eastern Europe and its Gypsies. In his teens, Kruno took up the guitar and studied rock and blues throughout his high school years, honing his technical prowess and improvisational abilities.

While studying music at university, Kruno was introduced to the Django Reinhardt style guitar and began a passionate study of the Gypsy Jazz genre. Kruno creates a new branch of gypsy jazz by fusing Eastern European folk traditions with Django swing. The new merging of sounds enthralls listeners with its sweet Balkan melodies, romantic songs and hot Jazz.

Kruno has performed at folk festivals and jazz clubs all over the Untied States, Canada, Europe and Japan brining his unique blend of swing and folk themes to exhilarated audiences.
