For other meanings, see [[Bix (disambiguation)]]. '''BIX''' is one of the oldest and famous rock bands in Lithuania. They got together in [[1987]] in [[Šiauliai]] and in a few months became a [[cult band]]. After a period of intensive touring throughout [[Europe]] and [[the US]] they were the most experienced Baltic band, and probably the best known in the West. Recording never was a strong side of BIX since they were a 'live' band. Their style of music may be described as [[post-punk]] with the elements of [[ska]], [[Latin American music]] and [[funk]]. == Members == * Saulius 'Samas' Urbonavičius - [[vocals]], [[guitar]] * Gintautas 'Profesorius' Gascevičius - [[drums]] * Mindaugas 'Špokas' Špokauskas - [[Keyboard instrument|keyboards]] * Skirmantas Gibavičius - [[bass guitar|bass]] * Aurimas Povilaitis - [[Percussion instrument|percussion]] == Discography == * '''1991''' Akli Kariai * '''1992''' La Bomba * '''1993''' Doozgle * '''1994''' Tikras Garsas * '''1995''' 7 * '''1996''' Žiurkių Miestas * '''1997''' WOR'S == External links == {{commonscat}} * [http://www.zona.lt/bix/ Official Site] [[Category:Lithuanian music]] [[Category:Lithuanian musical groups]] [[Category:Musical groups established in 1987]] [[Category:Post-punk]] [[Category:Šiauliai]] [[fr:BIX (groupe)]] [[lt:Bix]] {{Lithuania-stub}} {{euro-band-stub}}
