Band Story

No bullshit, no fake smiles. Just music fueled with true stories, written and played from the heart.

In this crazy world where true musical values are thrown into oblivion, Bosak and The Second Hand Band bring you the music you can feel as well as hear while listening to it…. LOUDLY!

 
Bosak & The Second Hand Band (BSHB) is a southern rock / rock'n'roll band from Zagreb, Croatia. A band that lives and plays their music straight from the heart with only one goal: to reach the hearts of listeners and take them by the hand on a journey through the band's infinite stories.


Four true friends started this journey back in the 2000s when they gathered and formed the first line up of “The Second Hand Band”. As the band’s at-the-time drummer, Marko Bosak with other members of The Second Hand Band had a dream: to become a vehicle for the musicians with the same taste in music and the love for playing and living a life of its own together with the fans that come aboard.

 
After becoming a household name among Zagreb's club scene, in 2012 The Second Hand Band released their first studio album of covers - “That’s how we do it”. The story goes on. Many great people and musicians took the ride on the SHB train. They gave their energy, time, love and poured their souls into the band’s signature sound. They made the band what it is, and where it is today.


„ONCE YOU’VE BEEN PART OF THE SHB FAMILY YOU NEVER REALLY LEAVE.“, says Marko Bosak 

 
Eight years later, taking eleven true stories from his life, frontman and lead singer Marko Bosak put them to music and gave birth to the band’s first original studio album called “Based on a True Story” in 2020.

 

BSHB's latest release from 2022, "Studio Sessions"  is a collection of original songs and covers that have always been a source of inspiration. By recording the album live in a studio setting, in only two days, BSHB captured the chemistry and vibes the band has when doing what they love and playing the music they're passionate about.

PRESS QUOTES

BSHB excellent in Tvornica Kulture

"They gave us their positive vibrations and feelings, but they were equally enthusiastic about absorbing the audience's feedback! We all know that once that wheel starts turning, it's hard to stop. That's a matter of inertia, and that's what happened! Exceptional and excellent feelings and atmosphere."

Southern but not Dalmatian

"Bosak & The Second Hand Band have released a "southern" album that could easily have been released somewhere in the American Midwest without anyone noticing its original origin.""
