In memory and pride of my brother, Damir Kukuruzović, jazz guitar maestro
***Well, good Morning dear Friends and Photography Lovers***🙌📸

*I have already written to you about my dear and never-bereaved brother Damir, about his personality and humanity, about his love and his sincere smile, about his jazz club... I wrote to you about our love, but also about the endless sadness over his passing.
Yesterday I was at the announcement of the summer jazz festival that has been held in his honor and memory for the fifth year in a row since his death.*

***And it's hard every time, everyone is there, only he's not there.***

*Damir Kukuruzović was not only a top guitarist and pioneer of gypsy jazz in Croatia, but also a man whose enthusiasm created a scene where there was none. The founding of the Siscia Jazz Club, bringing world-class names to Sisak, his dedication to music and community — all speak of his immense love and passion.*

***That's what everyone says and admires him, but I say Damir was my brother and I'm proud of him.***💙💙💙💙💙

*Even after his death, it seems he left an indelible mark: the festival, the music, the memories and the people who remember him with pride. This year would have been the 20th Siscia Open Jazz & Blues Festival if Damir were with us, but unfortunately but also proudly, this year is the fifth Damir Kukuruzović Jazz Days. This year, in August, Damir would have turned 50*

*My city, our city got a new mural. My favorite in the city.... And again in honor of him, my brother.... It was painted on a building in the neighborhood where he and I were born, lived and grew up. I pass by it almost every day and it's strange... Sometimes I would cry, sometimes I would just smile at him and wave at him, but always with a heart full of love.*
