Bosquito
Bosquito (Pronunciation: ʙᴏsᴋɪːᴛᴏ) is a Romanian rock band formed in Brașov in 1999. The group's current line-up consists of vocalist/guitarist Radu Almășan, drummer Dorin Țapu, guitarist Ciprian Pascal, and bassist Mircea "Burete" Preda. The band is well-known for infusing their songs with diverse influences, including Gypsy music, Latin, Balkan, punk, and elements of symphonic music. The group has released 5 albums to date with several top-charting singles including "Pepita", "Marcela", "Bosquito", "Hopa Hopa", and the ballad "Două Mâini", which reached #1 in the Romanian Top 100, remaining one of the most celebrated love songs in Romanian music. In 2005, the band entered a hiatus on the Romanian market while relocating to the United States; the original line-up disbanded shortly thereafter. In 2011, Radu Almășan made a comeback as Bosquito with a brand-new line-up, launching their first single in 6 years: "Când Îngerii Pleacă", as well as releasing a new album, Babylon, in 2014.
