Raised in a family of sevdah musicians, Imamović was immersed in the traditions of this unique musical genre from an early age. Since releasing his debut album in 2006, he has toured extensively throughout Southeast Europe and across the continent, performing regularly in Austria, Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark, and Sweden. His concert tours have also taken him to the United States, China, India, and Mexico.
