About Crveni Koralji

Crveni Koralji (trans. The Red Corals) were a Croatian and Yugoslav rock band formed in Zagreb in 1962, notable as one of the pioneers of the Yugoslav rock scene. Crveni Koralji were initially inspired mainly by Cliff Richard and the Shadows, but soon included covers of songs by other acts into their repertoire, as well as their own songs. With their performances and early releases, the band gained nationwide popularity, and by the mid-1960s became the most popular Yugoslav rock group. In the second half of the decade, with the arrival of new musical trends on the Yugoslav rock scene, their popularity heavily declined and since the mid-1970s the band, although never officially disbanding, performed occasionally only. The group continued their activity in mid-1980s, releasing three studio albums by the end of the decade. Since the beginning of the 1990s, the band has made occasional reunions to perform live and work in studio, releasing their last studio album in 2006.
