Founded in Pazin in 2007, the band Veja has established itself as one of Croatia’s premier ethno/world music acts. Drawing inspiration from traditional Istrian folk music, they re-imagine classic melodies through a modern lens, blending Dinaric and Italian cultural influences into a unique vocal and instrumental performance. The band consists of Goran Farkaš (lead vocals, multi-instrumentalist), Marko Pernić (accordion), Endi Oblak (cajón, percussion), Sebastijan Demark (bass), and Marijan Jelenić (guitar).

Their debut album Dolina mlinova (2014) spawned standout tracks like “Anka,” “Marija,” and “Črni orko,” while their release Škura ura (2022) further cemented their status as master promoters of Istrian musical heritage. Having toured across Italy, France, Estonia, and Belgium, they joined the roster of the European booking agency Charmworks in late 2025. Their third studio album is set to be released in the first half of 2027.
