Discography and performances
Not long after the band was formed, they released and recorde their first album Igra Game. Lyrically strong, it was straight ahead rock'n'roll. The second one, called Ko hodiš nad oblaki, was more indicative of what was to come, as it was a softer, more melodic and thoughtfull album. It has also brought them their first hit.
After the first two albums, the band took itself five years and the next one was well worth the waiting. It vseboval lots of guests, a new, sodoben rock sound and produced a number of radio hits, some of them still often heard on the radio. It gained them the awards for the band of the year by the xy in 2004 (and in 2005), for the album of the year and the singer of the year. In 2005, they also gained an award by SRF for a song from their re-released second album.
In the following years, they played on some major media events like Viktorji, played on unnummerable stages (and also appered on festivals such as Rock Otočec, Schengen fest), collaborated with another big Slovenian rock band Siddharta and released a very well received cover of song by the legendary punk band Niet. The culmination of all this was a concert in Križanke, where they appeared with Symphonic orchestra and invited many popular musicans like Polona Kasal, Tomi Meglič, Ditka Haberl, Severa in Gal Gjurin etc, to join them on stage. As the concert was soon sold out, another one was additionaly set up on the next day and was broadcasted live by Val 202.
In 2009. there first appeared a new album and wiuth it a new packet of widely Ure letenja za ekstravagantne ptice. Still, the new album was once again caught some of the productiona nd stylistic trends of the current rockn'roll sound. Some time later that year, a CD/DVD was released, containg an audio and video recording of their Križanke performance.
