ZELIMIR

Zelimir Kulisic is a dynamic Serbian-born recording artist, music producer, and songwriter whose remarkable talents have graced stages worldwide since the age of 12. With decades of musical experience under his belt, he brings authentic passion and exceptional skill to every performance.

Rising to prominence in the 90s, Zelimir and his sister became major recording and performing sensations in former Yugoslavia, making over 1,000 appearances on major TV and radio shows. When crisis struck his homeland, he embarked on an international journey with just his guitar, achieving new success through performances in Turkey, Cyprus, Scandinavia and beyond.

In 2013, Zelimir's single "JUDY" (featuring Albert Lee) reached the iTunes Country Music Top 100 charts in over ten countries, including Sweden, Norway, Netherlands, Denmark, Finland, France, UK, Germany, and Cyprus. The song gained such popularity that it became one of the most played "live dancing" songs in Sweden, inspiring a line dance phenomenon across multiple countries.

A significant career highlight came when Zelimir recorded "Hippy Hippy Shake" with the original writer and performer himself - Chan Romero. His musical journey took a pivotal turn when he met Norwegian artist Marian Aas Hansen while both were performing Beatles music on a Norwegian cruise ship. Their connection blossomed both musically and personally, leading to the creation of "Made in America Productions" in 2017.

Their musical partnership evolved into a love story in 2018, when Zelimir surprised Marian with a heartfelt proposal aboard the Color Fantasy during their Storband Cruise. To the shock and delight of 500-600 people onboard, he got down on both knees with his guitar still around his neck and asked for her hand in marriage, embodying the true rock'n'roll spirit even in life's most important moments.

Marian & Zelimir produce and headline successful shows including "Made in America Show," "Country Gospel Tour," "Rockin' Xmas Big Band Tour," and "Julefred" (now "Norwegian-American Christmas"). Following the pandemic, the couple relocated to Gran Canaria, Spain, establishing the "M&Z Music Studio" in Arguineguin where they produce, write and record music, videos, and host their popular "Studio Night Sessions" – intimate VIP events offering fans a unique experience.

Marian & Zelimir's performances take audiences on a soulful journey through American musical traditions – from Elvis to rock'n'roll classics – delivered with their trademark "From Honka-Honka to Hallelujah" musical magic. Don't miss the chance to experience Zelimir's powerful vocals, roaring guitar playing and captivating stage presence live, together with Norway's favorite songbird, as they affectionately call Marian in her homeland!
