BELGRADO

Belgrado, who emerged from the underground DIY scene from Barcelona, channels the spectral energy of 1980s European post-punk with a uniquely modern flair. Their music dances between the ethereal and tangible; echoing dreams set to rhythm. Since 2010, they have continuously brought their brilliance to the table, with four albums and global tours under their belt.

This multicultural collective brings together sun-kissed Venezuelans, a storyteller from Poland, and a Brit with rain-soaked memories. Together in the heart of Catalonia, their cultural symphony combines stark post-Soviet façades with vibrant Caribbean pulses.

Visually, Belgrado pays tribute to Dadaism, Constructivism, Suprematism, and the minimalist ethos of the Bauhaus School

Belgrado's melodies are a harmonious interplay of guitar and bass with synthesizers, with vocals deeply rooted in haunting Polish nuances. Their lyrics depict a dystopian world, blurred lines between real and imagined. A poetic optimism cuts through their melancholic sound; a light in the darkness. From their 2011 debut to their transformative "Siglo XXI" in 2013, Belgrado’s sound evolved extensively. Their 2016 album, "Obraz”, mixed psychedelia and dub with their signature post-punk panache. By 2023’s "Intra Apogeum”, Belgrado introduced a new electronic dimension to their sound, yet kept their authentic essence. This transformation was accompanied by tours across the globe, casting Belgrado in the limelight of their genre's vanguard
