I first learned about Zlatne Uste (almost Serbian for “golden lips”) from the 2013 documentary Brasslands. The doc follows ZU and two other bands as they prepare to compete in the Guča Trumpet Festival. The festival is like a competitive Woodstock; once a year, thousands of people descend on this quiet Serbian town for three days of exhilarating, frantic music.
