Divanhana like to think outside the box and have collaborated with the popular Turkish singer and actress Suzan Kardeş, among others, in recent years. Highlights of their career include an artistic collaboration with US musical star Bradley Dean. So this is how the Sevdalinka got to Broadway for the first time!
Divanhana have even used the enforced Corona isolation for a new project: The "Quarantine EP" was largely recorded on the smartphones of the individual band members while the musicians were scattered across six different cities in their home country. Thus, Divanhana made the best of the pandemic situation with limited resources.

"Zavrzlama" was still recorded in Slovenia in February 2020, just before the first lockdown. The album was mixed in Sarajevo in June 2021. The hauntingly reduced album opener "Na Kuslatu Se Mahrama Vihori" shows Šejla Grgić at the height of her abilities and skilfully keeps the balance between intimacy and latent threat. The lively "Cilim", on the other hand, invites you to dance, while "Peno" bows to the legendary Roma singer and songwriter Saban Bajramovic, one of the "wildest talents" in Tito-era Yugoslavia. "Opa Opa", on the other hand, from the pen of the well-known Serbian composer Radivoje Radivojevic, lives entirely from Šejla Grgić's seductive voice and surprises with palatable Latin piano and horn sounds.  "Voce Rodilo" and "Zova" were both written by Divanhana keyboardist Neven Tunjic, who thus confidently ranks himself as one of the most exciting young songwriters in the long tradition of Balkan folk music.
