Zolki Band is a Belarusian indie rock band from Brest, which was founded in 2013 by former members of the Daj Darohu (Belarusian: Дай Дарогу), Intra muros, and D_tails bands.
History[edit]
The band's first single “Śniežań” (transl. December) topped the charts for the 2013–14 season of the music portal Tuzin.fm.[1] The song was recorded in collaboration with the Landau band and is dedicated to the civil protests in Minsk taken place in December 2010 and the following crackdown.[2]
In 2014 Zolki Band released its debut album Doŭhi doŭhi dzień supported with music videos for songs “Rak” and “B.E.Z.R.A.Z.L.I.C.H.I.E. — heta tradycyja.”[3][4] Later that year the band was nominated in the category of “Opening of the Year” at the “Heroes of the Year Awards” (presented by Tuzin.fm).[5][6]
In May 2019 Zolki Band released a music video for the song “Drevy i cieni” (transl. Trees and Shadows) dedicated to protests against the construction of the Chinese-funded lead-acid battery factory near Brest.[7] Also the release of the second album was announced, the first part of which entitled “Šort Šort Night, Pt. 1” was subsequently released on September 15, 2019.[8] The band's latest album, named "Šort Šort Night, Pt. 2", was released on February 10, 2021.
