Zdob si Zdub
"Basta Mafia!"

 

In the mid 90s Zdob si Zdub started as a hardcore punk band and soon moved towards a more folkpunk sound, added a heavy brass section to their line up and started to experiment with different styles like electronic, drum’n’bass and alternative rock. With their charisma and electrifying live shows Zdob si Zdub today enjoy a status of a top live act not only in Moldova, Russia and Romania but now also all over Europe. In this year's Eurovision Song Contest 160 million people rocked out to the eccentric song "So Lucky" from the upcoming Asphalt Tango release "Bastia Mafia".
