*Luna Amara*

[india1807]

Luna Amarã is a Romanian alternative rock band. The name means "Bitter Moon" in Romanian, and is borrowed from the Roman Polañski movie of the same name, inspired by the eponymous novel written by Pascal Bruckner.

The band was founded in September 1999 under the name Tanagra Noise by Nick Fãgãdar (vocals, guitar) and Gheorghe Farcaº (bass guitar). In 2000 they changed it to the current name, Luna Amarã. The band has played on stage over 200 times in the past five years, throughout Romania. As a live act, this Romanian five-piece outfit has a style that combines modern heavy metal with alternative rock.

All the artists in the band want to dedicate their lives to promote and support a modern European society in Romania. Luna Amarã is involved in ecological projects such as "Save Vama Veche" (protecting the endangered seahorses), "Save Roºia Montanã" (protecting the wildlife and normal surroundings of a historical mining area from cyanide poisoning) and social awareness projects, such as the recent "Vote for Them" tour, organized to convince young adults to vote.

Considered a "cult band", Luna Amarã is currently Romania's most successful group from the new wave of rock acts. Luna Amarã was the top selling artist in a national chain of music stores (Hollywood Music & Film) from July until September 2004. The "Folclor" ("Folklore"), "Gri Dorian" ("Dorian Grey"), "Roºu aprins" ("Scarlet") and "Ego nr. 4" singles reached number one in airplay charts at local radio stations around the country.

In January 2006 they released the album "Loc lipsã" (Missing Place). The band performed a 40 dates tour all over Romania in clubs and open air locations as well as shows in Holland, Germany, Bulgaria and Turkey. For the 2nd time consecutively, Luna Amarã has been invited to play live at Sziget Festival in Budapest.
