KOIKOI

KOIKOI brings a fusion of sonic eclecticism and unrestrained energy. Unburdened by genres, we’ve played with the most vibrant elements from indie rock, post punk, electro and pop making the danceable yet rich with textures and layers sound, spiced up with enchanting female-male vocal polyphony singing in Serbian. We’ve been told that in our case, this eclectic mix works brilliantly and that our music transcends language barriers, resonating worldwide. (Under the radar) malo sam promenila citat, da znate da nije od reci do reci.

Over the last three years, KOIKOI has captivated audiences with energetic live performances all around Europe. We’ve shared our music with audiences at some of the most important music festivals in the former Yugoslavia region and Europe, including EuropaVox (FR), Fusion Festival (DE), Exit (RS), INmusic (HR), and MENT (SLO). Additionally, we’ve played at many showcase festivals across Europe, such as Reeperbahn Festival in Hamburg, Tallinn Music Week, PIN Conference in Skopje, Sharpe in Bratislava, and Mastering the Music Business gde je ovo?). In 2023, KOIKOI were nominated for the Music Moves Europe Awards at ESNS as one of the top 15 emerging bands in Europe and were included in IMPALA’s ‘100 Artists to Watch’ in 2022.
With our debut album, Pozivi u stranu (Moonlee Records, 2021), and our unique live shows, we aim to bridge the gap between the intimacy of the underground and mainstream glamour (ovaj glamur ne volim kao formulaciju. dajte neku alternativu). Our second album is in the making, and it will bring something new that we can’t wait to share with you.
