Edin Dervišhalidović (born 12 September 1962), known by his stage name Dino Merlin is a Bosnian singer-songwriter, musician and record producer.
Nicknamed "The Wizard", he is considered one of the most prominent and commercially successful artists ever to emerge from former Yugoslavia. Born in Sarajevo, he was the founder and leader of "Merlin", which eventually became one of the best selling rock-bands of south-east Europe.
Dino is recognised for his later solo work during which he established himself as one of the best-selling regional artists of all time. During his career he has produced over a dozen chart-topping albums, held several record-breaking tours, won many awards including the April 6 Award of Sarajevo, and has authored the first national anthem of Bosnia and Herzegovina. He is widely known for his distinctive voice, stage performances and poetic lyrics.
Edin Dervišhalidović was born on 12 September 1962 in the historic neighbourhood of Alifakovac in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, which was a republic of Yugoslavia at the time. The Dervišhalidović family traces its origins to Novi Pazar in Serbia. Dino's father Abid was a carpenter and came to Sarajevo as a teenager. His mother Fatima, born and raised in Sarajevo, was a Muslim cleric. His parents divorced when he was 7 years old and he was subsequently raised by his mother.
