Pavlovic    Music runs in the bloodline of Zeljko Pavlovic, whose father was one of the most acclaimed folklore musicians across Bosnia-Herzegovina and the Southern Slavic diaspora of the U.S.  His family has a tradition of musicianship dating back two centuries in his birthplace of Sarajevo, Bosnia, when he and his family took refuge from the Bosnian War that began to tear apart the region when he was 14 years old in 1992.  “We went through quite a bit of trauma and the war at that age,” Pavlovic said.  Pavlovic started playing violin at 3, and his father played the guitar and tambura, which is a popular genre of folk music across Bosnia, Croatia, and Serbia. After a stint in Minnesota, he has since called Houston home for 17 years.
