Irie FM
Irie FM is a vocal-instrumental experience that counts nine people, gathered around one idea. That idea is unity in creating the music for young people. The band plays Roots Reggae in the original style along with Dub versions of all songs which are played live as “Showcase” versions. The original music is interpretated by the compact setup of instruments containing both rhytm and brass section: the Drum, Bass, Rhytm and Solo Guitar, Keyboards, Percusions, two Trombones and Saxophone.
Formed 2001 in Belgrade, Serbia

Exit Online Label in this new season introduces the audience to yet another name from domestic music scene, a grand reggae crew IrieFM. For all the lovers of root reggae sounds created by this highly talented music collective, album "Skills of the Youths" is available for free download at http://exitmusic.tv
IrieFM started by playing traditional roots reggae enriched by jazzy bras moments. As they grew more mature as a band, their music gained plenty of new dub, soul, and punky reggae features. Recognized as Jamaican spirit guardians, in 2006 IrieFM were invited to open for the greatest dance hall artist of today, Capleton. After this, they almost went straight away to Del Arno's "D.A.B.Ing" studio, where, after two years of ripening, their album "Skills of the Youths" is ready to be picked. Their career continued by their trip to India, and by their signing for "World Music", and the whole subcontinent market, alongside the likes of Sade, Richard Bon or John McLaughlin. Upon their return from the east, IrieFM played all over Serbia and the region. They have performed at Exit Festival four times in a row, and festivals like Trenchtown, Supernatural, BELEF, Demofest, Jelen Pivo Live, Dani Beograda, followed. In May this year they opened for famous Thievery Corporation at their Belgrade concert.
"Irie" is a state of mind you search for, a positive every-day life with a purpose, thoughts coming from Vukasin Markovic's distinctive voice. A former member of the cult band Eyesburn, he is today the leader and song writer for IrieFM who, apart from singing, includes his already recognizable trombone in his performance.
Alongside Markovic, this music collective includes guitar player Slobodan Jovanovic, Darko Avramovic on keyboards and percussion, whereas the band's rhythm is carried by the drummer Nikola Cirovic, and the bass player Igor Vicentic. Brass section members are Andrea Bucan on saxophone, trumpet player Sava Matic, and next to Vukasin, Ognjen Cukic also plays the trombone. The distinctive IrieFM live sound is brought together by sound engineer Uros Milojevic.
