Dubioza Kolektiv at The Fleece in Bristol on Sunday 16 February 2020
Once upon a time (2003) in a faraway land called Bosnia and
Herzegovina, a group of friends decided to form a band. Along with local
Balkan flavors, their musical influences come from all over the world:
ska, punk, reggae, electronic, hip-hop. Yet, there was no music industry,
few concerts, no space for cultural or political expression among the new
crop of plugged in youth. In fact, the entire region was reeling from deep
moral and economic stagnation. It was from this environment that
Dubioza Kolektiv was born, and not quietly, but kicking and screaming,
presenting no-go topics front and centre, and demanding to be heard-
and in doing so, they created a phenomenon.
Fast forward to 2020 the band continues stronger than ever and are now
established as among the best and most popular live outfits in Eastern
Europe. After blowing away audiences around the UK last year one
reviewer said “when they grace our shores again, make sure you catch
this life-affirming band and their explosive live show”. They’re back in
2020 – with a UK tour and a new album #fakenews coming soon!
