Music group AFRODIZIJAK was founded in November 2002 in Banja Luka / Bosnia and Herzegovina, when we started specific cultural expression in Banja Luka and surroundings. Original music expression was built on the native African rhythms and famous tradition of African culture, implementing various similarities with local ethno rhythms.
Using only voices and traditional African instruments mixed with Balkan and World rhythms, this band became very movable, merry and extremely powerful on stage.
The very first shows AFRODIZIJAK had at the beginning of 2003 in Banja Luka, and then played in most of clubs in Banja Luka (KIC, Onazis, Mr.X, Castra, PKB Geto, Del Capo, Club Max, Latino Bar, Irish Pub), in the open street concerts, and all over Bosnia and Herzegovina's towns and cities (Bihać, Brčko, Čelinac, Doboj, Derventa, Novi Grad, Prijedor, Teslić, Slatina, Sarajevo, etc.).
AFRODIZIJAK members are participating in many local bands (Post Scriptum, A3pa, Kujundžije, Kreč, Sopot), collaborating with local DJs and NGOs, and leading percussion workshops for children in summer camps Global Children's Organization (GCO) in BiH and Peace Action Children Team (PACT) in Croatia.
Music group Afrodizijak is officially registred public association of citizens since 2007.
