Come feast and dance the night away at our joint fundraiser to support America’s favorite Balkan brass band and a new feature documentary from MEERKAT MEDIA!

Meerkat Media is chronicling ZLATNE USTE –- an all-American Balkan brass band -– as they travel to Serbia in August 2010 to play in competition at Guča, the biggest, craziest trumpet festival in human history. For 10 insane days, half a million people from all over the world will invade a tiny Serbian village for the 50th anniversary of a festival that dwarfs puny American music festivals like Coachella and Burning Man, surviving half a century of political turmoil to represent the triumph of the musical spirit.

We need your help to send the band to Serbia as American representatives of this infectious music, and to fund our exciting documentary examining the cross-cultural implications of this historic event.

Kick off the journey with us and enjoy a full evening of Balkan dancing, food and drink, donation prizes, and a sneak peek at the film trailer and other works by Meerkat Media.

Featuring the amazing sounds of Zlatne Uste and the Salt Wives! Hosted by DCTV at the landmark historic firehouse in downtown Manhattan.

Please come on by for a taste of the irresistible Balkan beat and for a chance to support independent filmmaking!
